Your summary is pretty bad. Is Venmo making money right now? It isn't. Is Venmo going to make money in the future? It may. Many tech companies is doing business or going IPO with a lost. This is typical. They are not going to make money now because of the high initial investment cost and they accepted losses to expand their market reach. Once they are big enough (like Facebook or Google) and hold large enough market shares, they can start making profits by economies of scale, start charging small fee on transactions or charging banks a small percentage to get access to that money for investment. For example, if your operating cost is 300 millions and you are generating $10 each per person with consumer base of 20 millions, you will be making a loss. If your base continue to growth and your cost remain the same, you are making huge profits the next year. Lyft is making loss the same way. Same for Facebook when 1st first started and called itself free social network. Same for Uber. Every cent that you leave in your venmo account is a cent that a bank can lend out without paying you a damn shilling of interest rate. You are giving them money to do business for free.

It's been in existence for about 2 decades in Kenya, and is far more advanced than Venmo. M-pesa generates billions for Safaricom, a Vodafone-owned business in Kenya. Venmo could eventually become a bank, offering loans, etc... Just the way M-pesa is today...
