How to Export Venmo and Make a Court-Ready PDF

Whether you’re showing proof of payments to a landlord, a small-claims judge, or an auditor, Venmo’s website lets you export a CSV that CourtPDF converts into a clean PDF with totals, monthly summaries, and a fully paginated appendix.

Step 1 — Export from Venmo (desktop web)

  1. Sign in at venmo.com (desktop works best).
  2. Open Statements or Activity and choose the date range you need.
  3. Click Download / Export CSV and save the file to your computer.

Tip: Export wider than you think you need. CourtPDF lets you filter to a tighter window when generating the PDF.

Step 2 — Generate the PDF

  1. Go to courtpdf.com/upload.
  2. Drag & drop your CSV. We auto-detect Venmo and parse deposits and payments accurately.
  3. (Optional) Set a date range, hide self-transfers, and enter the name you want on the cover (e.g., Prepared for: Alex Johnson).
  4. Click Generate PDF.

What the PDF includes

  • Cover with date range, provider, and totals (Inflows, Outflows, Net).
  • Monthly Summary (count, total, and average per month).
  • Top Payers to highlight who paid you the most.
  • Transactions appendix grouped by month with subtotals, repeating headers, and page numbers.
  • Warnings appendix if the CSV had issues (typos, ragged rows, or non-USD items).

Common court use-cases

Landlords often want to see each rent payment with dates and memos. Use Mode: Outflows to show you sent money or Mode: Inflows to show money you received from subtenants.

Judges usually don’t need every emoji or joke memo—our PDF keeps memos readable and standardized. You can filter out obvious self-transfers to reduce noise.

FAQ

Is this an “official” Venmo statement? No. It’s a clear, printable summary built from your CSV.

Can I include screenshots? Most courts prefer tabular summaries. Bring your PDF and your original CSV as backup.

Does it handle refunds and fees? Yes—net amounts are computed correctly when present.
