Does anyone have any issues with Venmo? All of a sudden Quickbooks won't connect with Venmo and download the transactions. I've checked the log in and it is ok.

I even reset the password and tried again and it still won't connect with Venmo and download the transactions.

Does anyone have any issues with Venmo? All of a sudden Quickbooks won't connect with Venmo and download the transactions. I've checked the log in and it is ok.

I appreciate the initial steps you've performed, @active waggers. I understand that encountering issues with account connections can be challenging, and I want to assure you that I'm here to assist you. I will do my best to provide you with the necessary information and help to resolve this matter.

 

To start, did you encounter any error messages while attempting to connect to Venmo? If yes, I'd like to ask what specific error message that is. This will enable me to provide you with precise assistance and customized solutions for the particular error you are encountering. Any additional information would be greatly appreciated.

 

While waiting for your response, you can manually upload your bank transactions into your QuickBooks account. Begin by logging in to your bank's website and following the instructions on how to download the transactions.

 

Here's how to upload the file:

 

  1. Select Banking from the sidebar menu, then go to the Banking tab.
  2. Choose Upload from file from the Link account drop-down arrow.
  3. Hit Drag and drop or select files and choose the file you downloaded from your bank.
  4. Select the file then hit Open.
  5. Follow the on-screen instructions, then click Next.
  6. When you’re ready, select Let's go.

 

You can then review and categorize your transactions to make sure they're correctly assigned to the appropriate accounts

 

Additionally, I've included these articles that'll help you what to do when you encounter error messages when you encounter bank errors in QuickBooks Online:

Thank you for your reply. I used to do it manually and it would take so long. I just cannot understand why it suddenly won't work. I tried to log in directly onto Venmo with the same credentials and I do not have any issues. It is only when I try to "connect bank" in Quickbooks that I do. Attaching a screen shot and will send another shortly.

I appreciate the additional details and screenshot, active waggers.

 

I've noticed that you're encountering an error 103 when attempting to link your Venmo account in QBO. Typically, this error indicates that the user ID or password provided for the bank account you're trying to connect is incorrect.

 

Based on your previous reply, it seems that you were able to successfully log in to your Venmo account using the same credentials.

 

When attempting to reconnect or make a connection in QuickBooks Online (QBO), it's important to manually enter the user name and password, rather than relying on the browser's auto-fill or auto-populate feature. This can help ensure that the correct and up-to-date information is entered.

 

Aside from that, there are also times that excessive cache and other browser-related issues can sometimes lead to improper functionality or display of incorrect information in QuickBooks Online (QBO), including banking errors. 

 

To fix issues related to cache and other browser-related problems in QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can try logging in to your account in an incognito or private browsing session. This can help ensure that the browser does not cache old information from previous sessions.

 

Here are some steps you can follow:

 

  1. Open your browser and click on the three dots in the upper-right corner.
  2. Select "New Incognito Window" or "New Private Window" from the dropdown menu.
  3. Log in to your QBO account in the new window.
  4. Check if the issue persists.

 

Alternatively, you have the option to switch to other browsers and log in to your account using them. Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge are all compatible with QBO. 

 

Following this, verify if the Venmo connection has been reestablished. Then, return to your original browser and perform a cache clearing. For guidance, please refer to the following article: Clear Cache and Cookies to Fix Issues When Using QuickBooks Online.


Here are some additional resources that can be helpful when working with your banking transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO):

 

 

Please don't hesitate to reply back to us if you require additional assistance when working in QBO. We are here to help, and you're welcome to return anytime you need our support.

I tried both of these two options - private browser and clearing the cash and manually entered the username and password and it is still not working.

I'm also having this same issue. I know venmo is notorious for connecting poorly with qucikbooks.

 

i've had this happen some time ago, it took about a week or two to resolve it self. Just keep trying - but don't manually add your tractions if you can help it - it'll make things more complicated when things do start to sync.

Does anyone have any issues with Venmo? All of a sudden Quickbooks won't connect with Venmo and download the transactions. I've checked the log in and it is ok.

I'm having the same issue.  When I upgraded to QB Advanced a couple months ago, I all of a sudden needed to to re-verify my Venmo account with every update.  Annoying, but doable.  Starting a couple days ago, I'm unable to connect to venmo at all.   I've double checked my venmo.  I can log in fine there.   I tried to update venmo in an incognito window as we recommended in this thread but that didn't help.

 

The error code I get is 103.

 

Given the number of people experiencing this issue with the recommended fixes not working, let's do better Quickbooks!  We rely on you for up to date financial information.   I can't just not have a key account not included.

I have the same issue today. First it said my secondary authentication number didn't work, so I tried to sign in. Then I did "go to bank" and was able to sign in to Venmo fine. Tried to sign in again, nope.

It's annoying that I have to get an authentication code each time, so I only do Venmo at month end. Fortunately it is for my husband's account and not a client! Now this added mess.

Having exact same issues. Upgraded our QBO acct a couple months ago and began having to reconnect Venmo 4-5 times per week and now it won't connect at all even though user name and password work fine on Venmo.

I contacted Venmo &  was told that they no longer connect to QuickBooks.. QuickBooks had told me too contact them about the issue. Really poor communication from QB if this is true.

I was told by Venmo that you can no longer connect QB to Venmo. Was that information correct?

I have had the same issue and it's incredibly frustrating and a huge problem for me. I got the same runaround from support to talk to Venmo even though there's nothing meaningful to share from the error message. Nonetheless, I reached out to Venmo and have not heard anything either. This is a major issue.
