  • Mizuho analyst Dan Dolev's proprietary survey of PayPal Holdings, Inc's PYPL Venmo and Apple Inc AAPL Apple Pay exhibited a "strong appetite" to tap to pay with Venmo if Apple opened up its near field communication to Venmo. 
  • Dolev estimates that tap-to-pay with Venmo could present a 10% total payment volume and 15%-20% sales upside given Venmo's high in-store take rates and its stored balance-driven funding mix.
