🔍Fetch your Venmo ID

Off-ramping requires submitting Venmo IDs on-chain so the on-rampers knows where to send the payment. A Venmo ID is a unique identifier (e.g. 1234567891011121314 up to 19 digits) for your Venmo account that is separate from your handle (@Venmo-User). You can look up your Venmo ID using one of the following methods:

From raw email

1. Open any Venmo payment receipt email and click on 'Show original' and search for user_id. As of writing these instructions [4/30/2023], you should be able to locate your id in multiple places but may need to splice the 3D encoding in front of the id.
