Venmo
History Venmo is an app and digital wallet that is compatible for both Apple Inc. and Android products. The app was originally created by Andrew Kortina and Iqram Magdon-Ismail. The two met when they were randomly paired as roommates at the University of Pennsylvania in 2001.

Previous Technology The money transferring company that came before Venmo was PayPal, one of the world's largest internet payment companies that provides electronic alternatives to traditional paper methods like cash and checks. Kortina and Iqram took that a step further to create a user experience that was consistent with other mobile tools used to interact with friends through SMS, Gmail, or Facebook, the casual interface that PayPal lacked.
