You're looking to transfer money from Apple Pay to Cash App, but you're not sure where to start. Don't worry, the process is relatively straightforward. You'll need to guarantee your Apple Pay is set up correctly and linked to a debit card. Then, you can open Cash App, navigate to the 'Add Cash' section, and select Apple Pay as your payment method. But before you initiate the transfer, there are a few things you should know to avoid any potential issues. Let's take a closer look at the steps involved.
Set Up Apple Pay Correctly
To begin transferring money on Apple Pay to Cash App, you'll first need to confirm that Apple Pay is set up correctly on your device, which involves adding a compatible debit or credit card and configuring the necessary settings. Verify your device is running the latest iOS or iPadOS version, and Apple Pay is enabled in your device's Settings app. Then, navigate to the Wallet app to add a new card or manage existing ones. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the card verification process. Once your card is added, you'll be able to make payments and transfer money using Apple Pay. Take a moment to review your device's settings and confirm that Apple Pay is properly configured for secure transactions.
Add Debit Card to Apple Pay
Now that you've confirmed Apple Pay is set up correctly on your device, you'll need to add a debit card specifically to facilitate transfers to Cash App, which can be done directly through the Wallet app. Open the Wallet app and tap the '+' icon in the top right corner to add a new card. Select 'Debit Card' and follow the prompts to enter your card information. You may need to verify your card with a code sent via SMS or email. Once added, you'll see your debit card listed in the Wallet app. Make sure it's set as the default payment method for seamless transfers to Cash App. This secure process will link your debit card to Apple Pay, allowing for easy transfers.
Move Funds to Bank Account
With your debit card linked to Apple Pay, you'll move funds to your bank account, which will ultimately facilitate the transfer to Cash App. You can transfer funds from Apple Pay to your bank account using the Wallet app.
| Funding Source | Transfer Time | Fees |
|---|---|---|
| Apple Pay | Instant | None |
| Apple Pay | 1-3 Business Days | None |
| Debit Card | Instant | $0-$5 |
Verify your bank account details before transferring funds. The transfer time may vary depending on your bank's processing time. Additionally, be aware of any fees that might be charged. Make sure your debit card has sufficient funds to avoid overdraft fees. Once the transfer is complete, you can proceed to link your bank account to Cash App.
Link Bank Account to Cash App
Your bank account, now containing the transferred funds from Apple Pay, can be linked to Cash App to facilitate the final transfer. To link your bank account, follow these steps carefully to guarantee a secure connection. Here are the types of bank accounts that are eligible for linking:
- Checking accounts: Most checking accounts are eligible for linking.
- Savings accounts: Some savings accounts may be eligible, but check with your bank first.
- Money market accounts: Some money market accounts may be eligible, but check with your bank first.
- Debit card accounts: Accounts associated with a debit card may be eligible for linking.
After confirming your bank account type, proceed to link it to Cash App, following the in-app instructions carefully to guarantee a secure connection.
Confirm Bank Account Information
To confirm the bank account information, carefully review the account details displayed on Cash App's screen to verify they match the details provided by your bank. This step guarantees the money is transferred to the correct account. You'll need to validate the account type, routing number, and account number.

|---|---|---|
| Account Type | Checking | Checking |
| Routing Number | XXXXXXXXXX | XXXXXXXXXX |
| Account Number | XXXXXXXXXXX | XXXXXXXXXXX |
