Does Venmo's Amazon Partnership Make PayPal Unstoppable?
The e-commerce juggernaut can have a positive effect on the payments business.

Digital payments behemoth PayPal Holdings (NASDAQ:PYPL) just inked a new partnership that can meaningfully propel the business going forward. Starting this year, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) customers in the U.S. will be able to use Venmo at checkout. Having recently parted ways with eBay, PayPal is now back to working with a major e-commerce company.

The rise of online shopping certainly goes hand-in-hand with the growth of electronic payments. But for PayPal, which was already doing well (sales and profit increased 132% and 242%, respectively, from 2015 to 2020), this has the potential to be a game-changer.

Venmo is instantly more valuable

Prior to this partnership, Venmo was already a booming personal finance tool with about 75 million active customers as of June 30, 2021. People can use the mobile app to send and receive money, spend and shop, and invest in cryptocurrencies. But now, with the ability to check out at Amazon, from the user's perspective, the value proposition of having a Venmo account just became more obvious.

If you wanted to buy something from Amazon, the only way to pay was with a debit or credit card. Venmo is the first third-party payments service integrated in the checkout experience. This puts PayPal, whose flagship payments network isn't even available on Amazon, in a class of its own that can benefit from the online retailer's tremendous growth.

While the specific details of the partnership aren't known, PayPal's management team admits that a massive merchant like Amazon will have favorable pricing thanks to its scale. But at the end of the day, it's about being a payment option that's in more places. "Ubiquity of acceptance is really important for us," PayPal CFO John Rainey mentioned on the third-quarter earnings call.

If Venmo was a stand-alone business, this new partnership easily just boosted its valuation.

PayPal's quest to monetize Venmo
Venmo generates revenue from its Venmo Debit Card and Credit Card products, merchant fees, and transfer fees, and from its Uber partnership. In the most recent quarter, total payment volume (TPV) on the Venmo platform stood at $60 billion, up 36% year over year. While this was 19% of PayPal's overall TPV, Venmo is forecasted to only account for 3.6% of the company's revenue in 2021. Therefore, there is a big opportunity to monetize the popular consumer app.

But according to Rainey, "Amazon will move the needle more on TPV than on revenue." Again, let's not forget that the overarching goal is to be omnipresent as a payment option. Venmo's huge millennial user base probably already shops a lot on Amazon, too. Bringing the two together seems like a no-brainer move to drive engagement.

While the Amazon partnership might not have a meaningful effect on PayPal from a financial perspective, it does shine light on just how powerful a force the payments enterprise is. Amazon hasn't worked with another payments provider before, so its deal with PayPal is a stamp of approval in regards to the latter's brand name, focus on security, and gigantic user base. What other high-profile tie-ups can CEO Dan Schulman and his team execute in the future?

PayPal was already unstoppable. Partnering with Amazon just proved it.

[BigHeis]

Add Venmo to that as well

[eastunder]

Well, that's just not true, Nivea. LOL

337 million users and merchants use PayPal according to this. So, somebody IS using it. ;)

I am very happy with my avg. Cost of PYPL, PayPal

[coffee2go]

Paypal is mega successful. Digital currencies give the company another boost! Paypal has already opened up for coins, but they have not yet built up their own infrastructure. Maybe Syscoin would be a potential partner here.

mobile.twitter.com/syscoin?lang=en

Fast, scalable, compliant low-cost tokens, assets and #NFTs secured by Bitcoin's censorship resistance and hashrate.

Especially the NFT market is growing rapidly, e.g. in art, sports, music. Other industries will follow. So Paypal could get a big piece of the pie.

I’m holding this stock mainly due to Venmo. It’s the premier pay app. I can honestly see Google or Amazon buy them out for twice the price.

[Norton1973]

I would never buy that stock, here with PYPL, Paypal stock with $37 average. Been a holder.

This was the easiest play I had once they announced the addition to crypto. I seen what it did for SQ, had that since $26 so was following closely. I wrote a few months back that they were underestimating how much revenue it will generate. PYPL! Long and Strong! Forward split coming???

Interesting discussion about Paypal deleting customers based on where they spend their money. Groups that paid for tickets to DC for gathering were poofed.

These attacks only target conservatives.

I'll be canceling my PayPal account once this post is done.

New here. I added PYPL when they adopted bitcoin to their platform. I had a position with their competitor which has performed very well. The earnings here with the growth of bitcoin will be quite shocking. I think the upside potential here is pretty big.
