Overview

  • Pools launched July 29 to a select group of users, with full availability expected in the coming months.
  • Contributors can pay through their Cash App balance or via Apple Pay and Google Pay without installing the app.
  • Organizers invite participants using $Cashtag links, texts or shareable URLs for seamless group collection.
  • Pooled money remains in its own balance and can be transferred instantly to an organizer’s main Cash App account.
  • No fees apply to either organizers or contributors as part of Cash App’s strategy to expand its peer-to-peer network.
