The updated terms introduce a new Bitcoin Auto-Withdrawal feature that lets users authorize recurring, automated transfers of bitcoin from their Cash App balance to an external wallet on a schedule they choose. The terms state that these transfers operate subject to the same daily and rolling transfer limits, identity verification, and compliance screening as manual withdrawals, and are irreversible once broadcast to the blockchain. The revised language also establishes that funds from external sources will be subject to withdrawal restrictions for a minimum of 7 days and as long as 60 days, replacing the prior language stating restrictions would apply 'until fully settled'. Users can cancel or modify Auto-Withdrawal schedules through the app at any time, but Cash App states it cannot stop transfers already initiated at the time it receives a cancellation request.

The updated terms establish a new pathway for self-employed individuals to accept commercial payments without opening a business account, but impose significant compliance obligations. Users must provide a nine-digit Social Security Number, accurately tag payments as 'Earnings' or 'Personal', and comply with federal tax reporting requirements, including potential 24% backup withholding if SSN is not on file. Misdesignating payments to avoid tax thresholds can result in account suspension or termination. You can enroll in the optional Earn in P2P service by completing identity verification and providing your SSN, but you should consult a tax advisor regarding your specific tax obligations.

The updated terms eliminate the automatic fee waiver for Paper Money Deposits that applied when customers spent $500 or more in qualifying purchases or received $300 or more in qualifying deposits each month. Under the revised policy, all customers are now charged $1 per Paper Money Deposit transaction regardless of account activity level, effective June 29, 2026. This change removes a financial incentive that previously rewarded higher account engagement with fee relief. You can review your deposit patterns to determine whether the $1 per-deposit cost affects your use of this service.
