What can you do with venmo?
ā ļø DEPRECATED ā DO NOT USE
Status: This connector has been pulled by Strider Labs as of June 5, 2026.
Why
This package automated Venmo / PayPal / Cash App access using browser automation with user credentials. We have concluded this is unsafe for users:
- Terms of Service. Automated/unauthorized access violates the user agreements of these services.
- Account suspension risk. These platforms can ā and do ā permanently suspend accounts they suspect of automation, and may freeze funds and linked bank accounts. Appeals are difficult or impossible.
- Credential exposure. Storing financial-service credentials in MCP client configs creates an unacceptable security surface.
- Regulatory category. Money-transmitter services operate under fraud-prevention regimes (BSA/AML) that are fundamentally hostile to bot traffic ā different from commerce platforms.
Strider Labs policy
We do not ship credential-handover MCP connectors for regulated financial services. Strider Labs builds connectors for commerce platforms (food delivery, travel, reservations) that work with ā not against ā the operator's terms.
If you used this package
- Stop running it.
- Rotate your account password.
- Review recent Venmo/PayPal/Cash App activity for anything you didn't authorize.
- If your account was flagged, contact the platform's support ā we cannot intervene.
What's next
We are evaluating safer architectures (OAuth-only, no credential handover, sanctioned partner APIs) for financial connectors. We will not re-publish browser-automation versions.
