Can you send bitcoin to Cash App from another wallet?
Yes, you can send bitcoin to Cash App from another wallet using its bitcoin address or a Lightning invoice, and Cash App users can send bitcoin to each other.
Yes, you can send bitcoin to Cash App from another wallet or exchange. You send it to the bitcoin address Cash App shows for your account, or pay a Lightning invoice, and the coins land in your Cash App bitcoin balance once the network confirms them. You can also send bitcoin to other Cash App users. The details below come from Cash App's own pages as of October 2026.
How do you send bitcoin to Cash App from another wallet?
Cash App's terms describe a deposit as moving bitcoin from an outside address into the balance Cash App holds for you, minus any fees. In practice you copy your Cash App bitcoin address, or scan its QR code, and paste it into the send screen of the other wallet. How to find your crypto wallet address covers the general steps.
The sending wallet pays the network fee. The terms say a deposit stays pending until it has the confirmations the network requires, and it does not show as complete before then. Ordinary on-chain transfers can take from minutes to hours, as how long does a crypto transfer take explains.
What should you check before using your Cash App bitcoin address?
Cash App says only supported assets may be deposited and that the transfer must match the receiving wallet's network. Its disclosures warn that sending an unsupported coin, or using an incompatible network, causes a permanent loss that Cash App cannot recover. So check that you are sending actual bitcoin on the Bitcoin network, not a wrapped token or a coin on another chain. The terms also say Cash App is not responsible for deposits lost through wrong address details.
If a deposit is delayed or blocked, why was my Cash App bitcoin withdrawal canceled covers how Cash App's terms let it hold or refuse transfers.
Can you send bitcoin to someone on Cash App?
Yes. Under Cash App's terms, bitcoin sent between Cash App customers is an off-chain transfer handled by Block, the company behind the app. It is not broadcast to the bitcoin network, and both people need bitcoin enabled on their accounts. If the recipient does not set that up in time, the transfer is cancelled and the bitcoin returns to the sender. Amounts are set in satoshis, so the dollar figure shown is only an estimate. Block may set limits on these transfers.
Does Cash App support the Lightning Network?
Yes. Cash App's bitcoin page says you can pay anyone with a Lightning invoice and calls Lightning payments nearly instant. A Lightning invoice is a one-time payment request, explained in what is a Lightning invoice. In November 2025 Cash App said eligible users could also pay Lightning QR codes using dollars from their balance, while the merchant still receives bitcoin.
Cash App's February 2026 announcement says Lightning is not available to New York residents. Its disclosures also set a 5,000 satoshi minimum for on-chain withdrawals, so very small amounts may need Lightning or may not move at all.
Bitcoin transfers generally cannot be reversed, so double-check every address and network before you send.
