Description: You could say once your company becomes a verb, you’ve arrived. And “Venmo me” is a pretty common phrase these days.

Marketplace’s Stephanie Hughes spoke with Yanely Espinal, host of Marketplace’s “Financially Inclined,” a video podcast that provides money lessons for teens, about the do’s and don’ts of these payment apps.
