Cash App updated its Terms of Service on April 22, 2026 to clarify how its Credit Score feature works. The changes specify that the Credit Score is not shared with 'unaffiliated' third-party lenders (meaning affiliated companies may still receive it), that it now incorporates data from Block, Inc.'s broader family of affiliates, and that a good Credit Score does not guarantee access to any product or service. These updates expand the scope of data used while narrowing some previously broader consumer protections.
Cash App's Credit Score feature now draws on data from Block, Inc. and all of its affiliates — not just your Cash App activity — which means more of your financial behavior across Block's ecosystem is being used to calculate your score. The policy also now only restricts sharing with 'unaffiliated' lenders, meaning affiliated entities within Block's corporate family may receive your Credit Score data. Additionally, a new clause clarifies that achieving a particular Credit Score does not guarantee eligibility for any product, service, or feature.
Having a good Credit Score on Cash App doesn't mean you'll actually qualify for any loan, card, or feature — Cash App is now explicitly saying the score is informational only.
Your Credit Score could now be shared with other companies owned by Block, Inc., not just kept within Cash App.

Cash App amended its Credit Score-related terms on April 22, 2026 in ways that materially expand affiliate data sharing and restrict the previous blanket prohibition on lender sharing to only 'unaffiliated' lenders. This touches FCRA obligations (15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq.) around consumer report data, CFPB supervision of fintech credit products, and CCPA/CPRA affiliate data-sharing disclosures under Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100. Compliance teams at fintechs or banks that integrate with Cash App or rely on its credit scoring data should review whether their own disclosures accurately reflect this expanded affiliate data use. Action is required if your organization's privacy notices or vendor agreements reference Cash App's Credit Score data scope.
1. Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq. — The Cash App Credit Score may qualify as a 'consumer report' depending on its use; expanded affiliate data sourcing and narrowed lender-sharing prohibition could trigger FCRA obligations around permissible purpose, adverse action notices, and consumer disclosure rights.
