| How To See Your Venmo Card Number On The App |
Navigating to Your Profile Icon
- Look for your profile picture or the generic profile icon (usually a silhouette of a person) located in one of the corners of the app screen. It's typically in the top-left or bottom-right corner, depending on your app version and operating system.
- Tap on this icon. This action will take you to your personal profile page within the Venmo app.
Step 2: Finding the Settings Menu
Once you're on your profile, you need to locate the settings section.
Locating the Settings Option
- On your profile page, look for an icon that usually represents settings. This is often depicted as a gear icon (⚙️).
- The location of this settings icon can vary slightly, but it's commonly found in the top-right corner of your profile screen.
- Tap on the gear icon to open the settings menu.
Step 3: Navigating to Payment Methods or Cards
Within the settings menu, you'll need to find the section related to your payment methods or linked cards.
QuickTip: If you skimmed, go back for detail.
Identifying the Relevant Section
- Scroll through the options in the settings menu. You are looking for a section titled something like:
- Payment Methods
- Cards & Banks
- Linked Accounts
- Or a similar phrase that clearly indicates where your connected financial instruments are listed.
- Pay close attention to the icons next to each option, as some might have a credit card icon or a bank icon next to them.
- Once you've identified the correct section, tap on it.
Step 4: Selecting Your Venmo Card
If you have multiple payment methods linked to your Venmo account, you'll need to select your specific Venmo card.
Locating Your Venmo Card in the List
- You should now see a list of all the payment methods you've added to your Venmo account. This might include bank accounts, debit cards, and your Venmo card (if you have one).
- Look for the entry that specifically identifies your Venmo card. It will likely have the word "Venmo" in its description and might display the last four digits of the card number for identification.
- Tap on the entry for your Venmo card.
Step 5: Viewing Your Card Details
This is the final step where you'll find the information you're looking for.
Accessing the Card Number and Other Details
- After selecting your Venmo card, you should see a screen displaying the details of your card.
- Look for the section that shows your full Venmo card number. For security reasons, it might initially be partially masked (e.g., showing only the last few digits with asterisks for the rest).
- There will likely be an option to "Show Card Number" or a similar button or link.
- Tap on this option. You might be asked to verify your identity using your phone's security features (like fingerprint, Face ID, or PIN) before the full card number is displayed.
- Once verified, your full 16-digit Venmo card number will be visible on the screen. You might also see other details like the expiration date and CVV (Card Verification Value) number.
Important Security Reminder: Be cautious about who you share your full card number with. Only provide it to trusted merchants when making purchases. Avoid writing it down in easily accessible places.
Step 6: Reviewing Other Card Information (Optional)
While you're on the card details screen, take a moment to review other important information.
QuickTip: Scan for summary-style sentences.
Checking Expiration Date and CVV
- Along with your card number, you should also be able to see the expiration date of your Venmo card. This is usually formatted as MM/YY (Month/Year).
- You might also find the CVV (Card Verification Value), which is a three-digit security code typically located on the back of physical cards. However, on the app, it might be displayed alongside the card number or in a separate field.
Managing Your Card Settings
- Some Venmo app versions might also offer options on this screen to manage your card, such as:
- Locking or unlocking your card: This is useful if your card is lost or stolen.
- Viewing transaction history: See recent purchases made with your Venmo card.
- Contacting support: If you have issues with your card.
