Missed the Now You See Me Venmo Money? Here’s Why

by

Fans of magic movies have now received the release date for Now You See Me 3, along with a small bonus – some lucky ones even got extra money as part of the film’s creative Venmo promotion. However, are there any more chances to secure funds through this movie’s unique payment trick?

After much anticipation, the first glimpse of the third installment in the Now You See Me series has been unveiled. It’s already generating excitement as it hints at grand spectacles, asserting, “The Four Horsemen are back, joined by a fresh crew of illusionists who will dazzle viewers with intricate plot twists, unexpected turns, shocking surprises, and magic that exceeds anything ever filmed before.

In this latest film, our previously estranged beloved characters join forces with a fresh group of cunning misfits to execute an unprecedented heist.

In the new movie, we see our once-divided favorites reunite with a new gang of tricksters to carry out the century’s most daring robbery.

Or:

This time, in the latest film, our favorite estranged characters team up with a new bunch of con artists to plan and execute the heist of the century.

All three options convey the same meaning as the original sentence but are written in different ways for variety.

Simultaneously with the release of the trailer, some enthusiasts found an unexpected boost in their Venmo accounts… as if by enchantment. However, are those “Now You See Me” payments still obtainable?

Can you still get money from Now You See Me Venmo payments?

I’m sorry to inform you that the Venmo marketing trick tied to ‘Now You See Me’ was exclusive to viewers who registered for the livestream phone number. Since the registration period has concluded, this opportunity is no longer available.

However, wasn’t there a livestream? On April 29, 2025, Now You See Mee transmitted a countdown on TikTok (later identified as a trailer event), in Times Square, New York. The broadcast also displayed the message “Text for magic: 315-669-8263” along with the countdown.

Texting that number right now won’t produce any immediate result, but those who sent texts prior to the countdown ending discovered an unexpected $119.16 in their Venmo accounts (provided they had one). The sole clue was the word “Voila,” accompanied by a magic wand emoji.

“One fan commented on X/Twitter, ‘Offering money to watch a film shows a new depth of despair and sorrow.’ Another added, ‘If this movie doesn’t succeed, it’ll prove that this is a highly costly advertising gimmick.'” (This version tries to maintain the original sentiment while aiming for clarity and readability.)

As a gamer, I’d put it this way: “They’ll catch you off guard when they clean out your gaming funds right at the climax of the flick.

The specific value of that sum hasn’t been fully understood yet. We anticipate the answer will be revealed when Now You See Me 3 is released in cinemas on November 14, 2025. Until then, we can only speculate.

Now You See Me 3 trailer is already missing one key detail

Everything that’s been happening is aimed at unveiling the Now You See Me 3 trailer, which you can watch below. But if fans weren’t already frustrated about missing out on free money, they’re irritated now because it seems Mark Ruffalo isn’t in the trailer.

In the new footage, Mark Ruffalo, who played the FBI agent-turned-magician Dylan Rhodes in the initial movies, seems to be missing. This is particularly surprising since Isla Fisher, the original horseman from the first film, is back for the third installment. However, she was replaced by Lizzy Caplan in Now You See Me 2.

Nevertheless, there’s no need for fans to panic excessively – Ruffalo is confirmed to reprise his role in the sequel, even though he doesn’t make an appearance in the trailer.

Adam Fogelson, head of Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group, expressed great satisfaction with the director’s cut and has already started working on the sequel. At CinemaCon, he shared that they are eager for viewers to experience the third film’s transformation and delighted that the director will continue creating more enchantment with them.

3 weeks from now, “Now You See Me 3” will be in theaters on November 14, 2025. In the meantime, explore some pulse-pounding thrillers available on Netflix or catch up with their latest TV series this month.
