Venmo Small Business Grant

Venmo Small Business Grant is sponsored by Venmo / PayPal. Selected businesses receive a $20,000 grant, access to professional coaching and resources (legal, financial, digital marketing), and public promotion on Venmo's and PayPal's social media platforms and websites.

Celebrating Small Business Bold missions. Big dreams. Bright futures.

We're celebrating 10 incredible business owners who received this year's grant. In May, we partnered with Hello Alice and the Global Entrepreneurship Network to provide $20k each in direct funding to 10 small Venmo businesses. From expanding their workspaces to investing in new products, these funds help support small business owners as they grow their businesses to the next level.

By providing mentorship, access to networks, and educational resources, these partners support entrepreneurs and help small businesses thrive. Among tens of thousands of applications, these business owners stood out for their innovative ideas, their inspiring stories, and their commitment to their craft. Jasmine.
