Why is the use of this app seen as a misuse in Venezuela?
The commercial use of the platform is not allowed, as stated in their ‘’Terms&Conditions’’, and all the Venezuelan banks are expected to prohibit the use of the app for the USD transactions.
It is highly used in Venezuela, in taxis, supermarkets and smaller shops, even though an active account in the US is required. There are a lot of Venezuelan people in the US, and also a lot of them who got back to Venezuela, but kept their US accounts active, and share accounts in order to avoid USD fees, and pay a wide variety of goods and services, when their local currency is weak.
Zelle collaborates with American banks, and the main issue is that high numbers of abroad transactions have been detected, which are not paying any taxes in the US, which is overall considered unproductive for the US.
