Could you please clarify the ownership relationship between PayPal and Venmo? I've heard they work closely together but am unsure if PayPal fully owns Venmo or if it's a separate entity with some sort of partnership. Understanding this distinction is important for me as a financial consumer, especially given the popularity of both platforms in the digital payments space. Could you provide a concise yet thorough explanation of the ownership structure between the two companies?
