If you've ordered a Cash Card from Cash App, it won't take long for it to arrive. Once your application is approved, your Cash App Card should arrive in the mail within 14 business days. Once you receive your Cash Card, you can use it to shop, and even add money to your balance in stores. This wikiHow article will teach you how long it takes for your Cash App Card to ship, how long it takes to be approved, what to do if you haven't received your card, and other important details about using Cash Card.

Things You Should Know

If you are eligible, your Cash Card application will be approved immediately upon submission.
Once approved, your Cash Card will arrive in the mail within 14 business days.
You can check the status of your Cash Card shipment on the Card tab in Cash App.

When will I receive my Cash Card?

Your Cash Card should arrive within 14 business days of approval. If your Cash App account is in good standing, and you are 18 years or older (or 13+ with parental approval), your application for a Cash Card will be approved immediately. Because approval is instantaneous, you won't have to wait long for your card to arrive in the mail. Cash App will ship your card immediately, you'll receive it within 14 business days of the approval date. Once you receive your Cash Card in the mail, keep the QR code that came in the envelope. This code makes it easy to activate your Cash Card.

Tracking Your Card

While there's no tracking number, you can still monitor your order. Once you've ordered your card, just tap the card icon at the bottom of Cash App to see the status of your shipment. If you see "Card Shipped," you'll know your card is on its way to your address. You'll also see how many days it has been since Cash App mailed your card. Keep in mind that it takes 14 business days for your Cash App card to arrive—not 14 days. This means that weekends and holidays are not factored into the shipment time.

What if my card never arrived?

Contact Cash App if you haven't received your card. If it's been 15 business days or more since your card was marked Shipped in Cash App (only count Monday through Friday, and not holidays), contact Cash App to report the problem. Cash App will deactivate the card they sent and send you a new one. Here's how: Open Cash App and tap your profile icon. Scroll down and tap Support. Tap Cash Card. Tap Issues with Cash Card. Tap Haven't Received Cash Card. Tap Report Card Now and follow the on-screen instructions.

Activating Your Card

Open Cash App on your iPhone, iPad, or Android. Once you receive your Cash Card, you can activate it instantly in Cash App.

Tap the Cash Card tab. It's the card icon at the bottom of the screen.

Tap Activate. You'll be asked for permission to access your camera. When prompted, tap OK.

Scan the QR code. Position your camera over the QR code that came with your Cash App Card. Once recognized, your card will be ready to use. If you don't have the QR code that came with your Cash Card, tap Missing QR Code at the bottom of the camera screen, then follow the on-screen instructions to activate your card using the CVV code.

How Cash Card Works

The Cash Card operates like a traditional prepaid debit card. Instead of linking to a bank account, the Cash App Card links to your Cash App balance. Each time you use your Cash Card online or at a store, the amount you spend is deducted from your Cash App balance. You can use your Cash App Card anywhere that accepts Visa. You can add money to your Cash App balance by depositing cash at major retailers like Walmart, Walgreens, 7-Eleven, Duane Reade, Rite Aid, Family Dollar, Pilot Travel Centers, and more), transferring money from your bank account, or receiving money from others. If you make a payment exceeding the amount of your Cash App balance, the card will pull from bank account, as long as you have one linked in your Cash App.

You can use your Cash Card at the ATM. If you need to withdraw money from your Cash Card as paper cash, you can do so at any ATM. There will be a $2.50 charge to withdraw money from an ATM, unless you set up direct deposit for your paychecks. If you receive at least $300 of direct deposit funds to your Cash Card each month, Cash App will reimburse ATM fees whenever you use the card for a withdrawal. It's not possible to deposit money to your Cash App Card at an ATM.

Add Boosts to your Cash Card to receive special discounts. Cash App offers a variety of "Boosts" within the app that you can add to your card at any time. Once your Cash App card is activated, tap the card icon in Cash App, tap Add offer, select a Boost, and then tap Add. Only one Boost can be active at a time, but you can swap out Boosts as often as you would like.

How Cash Card is Different

You can use the Cash Card in the United Kingdom. Few mobile payment apps in the U.S. allow for international transfers, but Cash App makes an exception for USD-GBP and GBP-USD transfers. Use your Cash Card in the UK with confidence. While Cash App can be used in the UK, you must be in the United States to create an account and order a card.

Go with the Venmo Debit Card instead if you want cashback. When you spend at participating merchants, Venmo offers cashback on your purchases. This cashback goes directly into your [[Venmo balance. Venmo's cashback offers operate similarly to Cash App's Boosts, but users may prefer the payouts that Venmo provides, as opposed to the discounts from Cash App.
