Connecting a Pool to Venmo, PayPal, and other apps

How to connect Cash App, Venmo, Paypal and other peer to peer payment apps

Each Pool includes its own account and routing numbers. Owners, Admins, and Spenders can use these to connect the Pool to external accounts like Venmo, PayPal, and other peer to peer payment apps. Viewers do not have access to account or routing numbers.

Please consult each service's website for the latest up-to-date information on how to connect your Pool to each service with your account and routing numbers:
