How to send Bitcoin from Cash App to another wallet

Send from Cash App and keep the receipt

1. Get the receiving details. Open Receive in the destination wallet and choose the supported Bitcoin network or Lightning option. Copy the details there.
2. Open your Bitcoin balance in Cash App. Choose the send or withdrawal option available to your account. Labels can change, so follow the instructions in your current app.
3. Enter the recipient and amount. Paste or scan the receiving details. Check the complete address against your wallet’s receive screen. Verify the unit, especially if the amount is displayed in dollars or sats.
4. Review the final terms. Check the BTC deducted, applicable charges, amount arriving, network and timing estimate. Read any account restriction or review message before continuing.
5. Confirm only when the details match. Save the transfer receipt. For an on-chain transfer, use the transaction ID when available to check network status and the receiving wallet’s required confirmations.

If the receiving destination is unfamiliar, consider a small test only when both sides’ minimums and the costs make that practical. Wait for the test to arrive before making a further transfer. Each transfer can have its own charge.

We don’t operate Cash App and can’t release a Cash App hold. For an account problem, use support inside the official app.

Check costs and availability separately

Cash App’s published fee page describes standard-speed withdrawals without a Cash App fee, subject to a minimum. Other withdrawal options or the receiving service may have different conditions. Use the amount and current terms shown for your specific transfer.

A purchase balance can also be subject to a withdrawal restriction. Cash App’s terms explain that availability can depend on funding settlement and account checks. Being able to buy and being able to withdraw can happen at different times.

Compare the amount deducted with the amount received in BTC. The dollar value can move while the transfer is pending, even when the BTC amount stays the same.

If the Bitcoin hasn’t arrived

Check the transfer status before sending again. Identify whether Cash App is still reviewing the request, whether an on-chain transaction has been broadcast, or whether the receiving service is waiting for confirmations.

• No transaction ID yet: read Cash App’s status and contact its support if needed. A wallet refresh won’t resolve a provider-side hold.
• Transaction ID available: compare the receiving address and transaction status with your receipt. The receiving platform may require additional confirmations.
• Lightning payment pending or failed: use the payment’s own status and support path. Check whether the request expired before trying another payment.

Keep receipts and transaction IDs for support. Don’t share recovery words or pay someone who promises to unlock the transfer. Read our withdrawal hold versus network delay guide for the difference.
