The Cash App allows users to transfer funds, buy Bitcoin, receive direct deposits, and even invest in stocks. However, there are clear limitations when sending and receiving money through the app. Understanding Cash App limits can help users avoid unexpected restrictions or delays in transactions.

Cash App Sending Limits for Unverified Users​

When users sign up for Cash App, they are subject to default sending and receiving limits. These limits are in place to prevent fraud and unauthorized transactions.
  • Unverified users can send up to $250 within any 7-day period.
  • They can receive up to $1,000 within any 30-day period.
These limits are relatively low and are primarily designed for casual or infrequent use. Users who anticipate higher volumes of transactions will need to go through a verification process to increase their limits.

How to Increase Cash App Sending Limits?​

To unlock higher transaction limits, Cash App users need to verify their identity. This involves providing:
  • Full legal name
  • Date of birth
  • The last four digits of the Social Security Number (SSN)
Once verified, the user’s account is upgraded, and the sending and receiving limits increase significantly:
  • Verified users can send up to $7,500 per week.
  • There is no cap on the amount they can receive.
Verification typically takes a few minutes, but in some cases, it may take up to 48 hours depending on the verification method and any inconsistencies in user information.

Cash App Limits for Business Accounts​

For users utilizing Cash App for business transactions, the platform offers Cash for Business accounts. These accounts are intended for merchants, freelancers, and service providers.
Key features of Cash for Business accounts include:
To set up a business account, users simply toggle their account type in settings and agree to the terms and conditions for commercial use.

Cash App ATM Withdrawal and Card Limits?​

Cash App also issues the Cash Card, a customizable debit card linked directly to your Cash App balance. With this card, users can withdraw funds and make purchases.
Here are the current limits for Cash Card usage:
  • ATM withdrawals are capped at $310 per transaction, $1,000 per 24-hour period, and $1,000 per 7-day period.
  • Cash Card purchases can go up to $7,000 per transaction, $7,000 per day, and $15,000 per month.
Cash App ATM withdrawals also incur a $2.50 fee per transaction, although Cash App offers reimbursement for up to three ATM fees per 31-day period if the user receives $300 or more in direct deposits during that time.

Cash App Bitcoin Transaction Limits​

Cash App users can also buy, sell, and transfer Bitcoin. However, these transactions come with their own set of limits.
Users must also verify their identity and enable Bitcoin withdrawals to move their crypto to an external wallet.

Cash App Direct Deposit Limits​

Cash App offers direct deposit functionality, allowing users to receive paychecks and other payments directly into their Cash App account.
  • The maximum amount for a single direct deposit is $50,000.
  • Cash App recommends users split deposits if they exceed this amount.
Direct deposits typically arrive up to two days earlier than traditional banks, a feature especially beneficial for those relying on timely payments.

Sending International Payments​

As of now, Cash App only supports international payments between the United States and the United Kingdom. This feature is still expanding and includes the following limits:
  • Users in the U.S. can send money to users in the U.K. and vice versa.
  • Currency conversion is automatic and fee-free, based on the mid-market exchange rate.
  • Sending limits are the same as domestic transfers: $7,500 per week for verified users.

Cash App Weekly and Monthly Limits​

Cash App does not explicitly disclose monthly limits beyond the thresholds for daily and weekly transactions. However, understanding how limits are calculated on a rolling basis is crucial:
  • Weekly sending limits operate on a 7-day rolling window — not a fixed calendar week.
  • Receiving limits for unverified accounts are based on a 30-day rolling cycle.
This rolling nature means that if a user sends $7,500 on a Tuesday, they must wait until the next Tuesday for that limit to reset.

Why Does Cash App Impose Sending Limits?​

There are several reasons why Cash App enforces sending and receiving limits:
  • Fraud prevention and account security
  • Compliance with federal regulations
  • Risk management related to financial transactions and chargebacks
These limits help Cash App maintain its trustworthiness and ensure the safety of user funds.

How to Check Your Current Cash App Limits?​

To review your current limits:
  1. Open the Cash App.
  2. Tap on the profile icon.
  3. Select "Personal".
  4. Your verification status and applicable limits will be displayed.
If you’re unsure of your limit status or wish to increase your limits further, contacting Cash App Support can help resolve more complex inquiries.

Tips to Avoid Hitting Limits​

  • Verify your account as soon as you sign up.
  • Plan larger transactions to avoid interruptions.
  • Use linked bank accounts for larger sums if needed.
  • Monitor your usage through the app’s activity section.
Understanding your limits allows you to use Cash App more efficiently without encountering frustrating restrictions or failed transactions.
