The most common reasons why Cash App may not be working include service outages, poor internet connection, app cache or data corruption, outdated app versions, multiple device logins, or security holds. Common fixes include:
- Checking if Cash App's servers are down using their status page or third-party sites like Down Detector.
- Ensuring a stable internet connection via Wi-Fi or mobile data.
- Restarting the app or your device.
- Clearing the app cache (on Android) or reinstalling the app (on iOS).
- Updating the app to the latest version.
- Logging out of multiple devices if logged in simultaneously.
- Changing your Cash App PIN if locked out.
- Contacting your bank if linked accounts are causing issues.
There can also be temporary holds or declines on transactions for security reasons, or problems linking bank accounts which require additional verification steps. If none of these steps work, contacting Cash App support is recommended for further assistance. Checking the official Cash App status page shows the service was operational as of August 29, 2025, so recent outages are unlikely to be the cause, suggesting issues may be device, app, or account-specific.
