PayPal stock falls after outlook miss, but CEO says Venmo has hit a ‘significant transition point’

PayPal stock falls after outlook miss, but CEO says Venmo has hit a ‘significant transition point’ | Payments Ecosystem | Scoop.it
A few quarters ago, PayPal Holdings Inc.’s disclosures of its rapid Venmo volume growth came as somewhat of a mixed blessing, since the popular peer-to-peer payment service was a hefty source of losses for the company overall. Venmo still isn’t profitable, but the narrative around the service is starting to change.
Vineet Anand's insight:

 PayPal reported 242 million consumer accounts;  usage 37 times per year on average, up 9 percent; 21 million merchants - added 13.8 million new accounts in Q4, a 58 percent year-on-year increase. Goal for 2019 is to have 300 million active accounts.

Venmo with $68 billion is losing ground to Zelle, however monetization will be key to move from expense to revenue generation with Venmo.
