PayPal has around 434 million active users worldwide, while Venmo has nearly 90 million users in the US.
Users have reported difficulties accessing payments, transferring funds, and logging into their accounts.
‘I sent someone $200, and the money was withdrawn from my account, but the other person didn’t receive it,’ one PayPal user shared on Downdetector.
‘There’s no record of the transaction on either end, and I have no idea where the money went.’
Another user shared: ‘I can login to PayPal, but its not letting me make payments.’
