Venmo restructured how it offers cryptocurrency services. Previously, users could buy, sell, hold, and receive cryptocurrencies directly through Venmo, with terms in a separate Cryptocurrencies document. The updated agreement states that cryptocurrency services are now provided through PayPal Digital, Inc., with eligibility and terms described in a separate Cryptocurrency Terms and Conditions document. The operational change establishes that cryptocurrency accounts are now branded as Crypto Accounts managed through an affiliate rather than Venmo directly, though the functional availability and user experience may remain similar.
