Cash App allows you to buy, sell, and transfer Bitcoin, but these services come with specific risks, fees, and limitations including price volatility and potential transaction irreversibility.
Bitcoin transactions on Cash App may be irreversible and subject to significant price swings; users can lose money rapidly and may have limited recourse for errors.
Virtual currency services engage FinCEN money transmission regulations, state-level BitLicense or money transmitter licensing requirements, and potential SEC securities classification questions for certain crypto assets; compliance teams should monitor evolving federal crypto regulatory frameworks including potential application of Bank Secrecy Act obligations and emerging IRS reporting rules for digital assets.

Cash App's terms significantly affect consumers' financial rights, requiring binding arbitration for most disputes and waiving class action rights, which limits recourse if something goes wrong with payments, account suspensions, or fees. The agreement also grants Block broad authority to suspend or close accounts, freeze funds, and reverse transactions, which can directly impact access to money. You can opt out of the arbitration clause by mailing a written notice to Block, Inc. within 30 days of first accepting the terms.
