What is Cash App and Cash App Card?
Cash App, formerly called Square Cash, is one of the most popular mobile payment apps, with millions of users in the US and UK. This payment service was developed by Block Inc. and allows users to transfer money to one another using a mobile phone app. Cash App also offers a prepaid debit card, called Cash App Card or simply Cash Card, that can be used with or without an associated bank account. It allows users to make online and physical purchases with their Cash App balance. Cash App Cards are accepted wherever Visa is accepted.
How Does Cash App Card Work?
To use the Cash Card, you must first activate it with the help of your Cash App. You can do this by going to the home screen of the app and selecting the card icon on the bottom left. Tap on the green “Activate” button. From there, you will be prompted to enter the CVV on the back of your Cash Card to activate it. Alternatively, you can scan the QR code present on the card envelope. Once your card is activated, you can use it to withdraw cash at ATMs, add it to Apple Pay, or use it to make international transactions in the UK and US.

To withdraw cash from your balance, you can use an ATM or get cash back at a participating merchant. There is no fee to withdraw cash from your Cash Card balance, but ATM fees may apply.
