User Testimonials
Venmo for BusinessXoom, a PayPal Service
Likelihood to Recommend
It’s well suited for timely transactions, ease with use and visibility at all times, with confirmations seen on both ends. I’ve had no difficulties using it and no situations come to mind whereby it is less appropriate to use. I would highly recommend Venmo for Business if/when ever asked by a colleague.

Xoom is best suited to send and receive money between two people who live in different countries, not only that we can also send money to our friends, colleagues, family members directly in their bank accounts. They have a great currency exchange functionality that directly converts our received money into our local currency, and deposits it into our bank account within a few minutes. The only drawback is that not many people know about it, it needs good marketing so that more people can use this service, and from my experience, I can say it is very secure and a good competitor of Payoneer.

Usability
I find that it is very easy to use, manipulate and I've had no issues at all whenever using it for Business or even personal purposes as well. I've never received any complaints or questions on either side whenever using it as well, and have only heard others speak about it in a positive manner too.

The implementation was largely successful. Since this was a large shift from normal practices, we faced a few teething problems, but largely I'd say it went well.

Alternatives Considered
PayPal has more work items for businesses. It has invoicing, time tracking, and marketing strategies. I could [use] PayPal to run my business like I do with QuickBooks. Affiliates with other business is crazy. Plus, they also carry debit and credit cards for business and personal purposes. Venmo is the little brother [of PayPal].

Our team has preferred Xoom because it is an efficient and safe way to transfer funds. We are able to be as detailed as necessary with every transaction, which gives us the confidence of knowing where our money is going. We appreciate the ease of use and the free initial account when signing up.
