Venmo Setup Via E-mail Forwarding

This guide will help you set up Venmo via email forwarding for the SellAuth platform.

To detect the Venmo payments you receive, you need to forward Venmo emails to sellauthmail@gmail.com.

Here are the steps to set up email forwarding in Gmail. You can apply similar steps to other email providers:

  1. Open your email.

  2. Go to Settings (top right corner, All Settings).

  3. Navigate to the forwarding settings ("Forwarding and POP/IMAP").

  4. Add a forwarding address.

  5. Paste sellauthmail@gmail.com into the textbox.

  6. After you continue, you will receive an email from Gmail with a forwarding confirmation. We will automatically return this email to you, and it might arrive in your Spam folder.

  7. Click the link in the confirmation email you received to confirm the request.

  8. Go back to forwarding settings ("Forwarding and POP/IMAP") and create a filter.

  9. In the "From" textbox, enter the email address from which you receive Venmo notifications (usually venmo@venmo.com).

  10. Press "Create filter" next to "Search" at the bottom.

  11. Select the "Forward it to:" option and choose the sellauthmail@gmail.com address.

  12. Create the filter.

  13. Add your Venmo Tag and the same email address you are using to forward emails to sellauthmail@gmail.com to SellAuth's Payment Processor settings.
