Cash App Transfer Limits
When transferring funds from Chime to Cash App, you'll need to be aware of the daily and weekly transfer limits imposed by Cash App to avoid any transaction issues. Cash App has a daily transfer limit of $7,500 and a weekly transfer limit of $17,500. If you try to transfer more than these amounts, your transaction will be declined. You should also note that these limits apply to all types of transfers, including instant and standard transfers. Additionally, Cash App may lower your transfer limits if they detect suspicious activity on your account. It's important to keep these limits in mind to guarantee smooth transactions and avoid any inconvenience. Always check your account limits before initiating a transfer.
Instant Transfer Fees Explained
Your instant transfers from Chime to Cash App come with a small fee, which is typically a percentage of the transfer amount. You'll want to know about this fee upfront so you can plan your transfers accordingly. The instant transfer fee is usually a small percentage, around 1.5% of the transfer amount, but it can vary depending on the transfer method and your account type. For example, if you're transferring $100, the fee would be around $1.50. This fee is deducted from the transfer amount, so you'll receive the remaining balance in your Cash App account. Keep in mind that this fee is only for instant transfers, and standard transfers may not incur a fee. Always review the fees before initiating a transfer to guarantee you understand the costs involved.

To guarantee the transfer from Chime to Cash App is successful, you'll need to verify that the funds have been deposited into your Cash App account. You can do this by following these steps:
- Check your Cash App balance: Open the Cash App and check your balance to confirm the transferred funds are reflected.
