If your total incoming funds (including direct deposits, peer-to-peer transfers, and other payments) exceed the $1,000 monthly limit, Cash App will likely reject any excess deposits until the next month when the limit resets. The money will not be automatically deposited the following month. Instead, your employer or sender may receive a failed deposit notification, and they may have to issue the payment another way.
What Can You Do to Increase Your Limit?
To receive more than $1,000 per month, you need to verify your identity on Cash App. This process typically requires:
- Your full legal name
- Your date of birth
- The last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN)
Once verified, your receiving limit increases to unlimited, and your sending limit increases as well.
What Are Your Options If You Can’t Verify?
If you cannot verify your identity (e.g., due to age restrictions), here are some possible workarounds:
- Use a Traditional Bank Account – Have your employer deposit your paycheck into a bank account instead.
- Split Your Deposits – Ask your employer to send part of your paycheck to another account or payment service.
- Use Another Payment App – Consider PayPal, Venmo, or another service with higher limits.
What are the Cash App transaction limits for sending and receiving money?
Cash App has specific transaction limits for sending and receiving money, which can vary based on your account verification status. Here’s an overview:
Cash App Sending Limits
- Unverified Accounts: You can send up to $250 within a 7-day period.
- Verified Accounts: Once you verify your identity by providing your full name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security number, you can send up to $7,500 per week.
Cash App Receiving Limits
- Unverified Accounts: You can receive an unlimited amount of money.
- Verified Accounts: You can also receive unlimited funds once verified.
- Standard Withdrawal: You can cash out funds to your linked bank account with no limit, but it may take 1-3 business days.
