Cash App sending limit - how to increase it

How much you can send and receive differs depending on whether your Cash App account is verified or not. If you verify your account, your Cash App limit will increase.¹

Although there’s no Cash App daily limit, with an unverified account you’re limited to receiving $1,000/month. You’re also restricted to a Cash App weekly sending limit of $250.²

To verify your account, all you have to do is:

  1. Open the app
  2. Try to send a payment of more than $250
  3. Cash App will automatically prompt you to verify your account, so follow the steps
  4. Provide your full name, date of birth and the last four digits of your social security number
  5. Complete the remaining steps and submit the verification form¹

If Cash App is happy with the information you provided, then they’ll verify your account. This will allow you to increase your Cash App sending limit from $250/week to $7,500/week and your receiving limit will become unlimited.²

Here are the Cash App limits for verified versus unverified accounts, as well as a comparison with Wise’s sending limits.

How is Cashapp weekly limit calculated?

Cash App doesn't have a daily limit for sending money. Rather, Cash App's default sending limit is $250 per seven-day period. If you verify your identity through the app, your sending limit should be increased to up to $7,500 per week and up to $17,500 per month.

How does Cash App weekly limit reset?

Cash App Weekly limit reset is Rolling and doesn't reset on any particular day of the week. For example, if you send a payment on the 3rd Tuesday at 9:00 AM exceeding your account limit, your Cash App payment will reset at 10th 9:01 AM the following Tuesday.

Why can I only send 2500 a week on cash App?

Cash App has a limit on the number of unverified users it accepts. The higher the limit, the less money you can send to other users. Therefore, you should not attempt to send or receive more money than you can handle with your verified account. You should make sure that you follow all the steps thoroughly.
