Digital wallet company PayPal disclosed it won’t face enforcement regarding a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) probe into its subsidiary Venmo.
PayPal said it received investigative demands from the CFPB “related to Venmo’s unauthorized funds transfers and collections processes and related matters, including treatment of consumers who request payments but accidentally designate an unintended recipient.” The company responded to requests for documents and answers to written questions from the agency.
In March, the CFPB told PayPal it was concluding its inquiry without taking action, the company said in a regulatory filing Tuesday.
