If you’ve used Cash App in the last six years, you may be eligible for up to $2,500 as part of a class-action settlement over security breaches on the mobile payment app.
In a class-action lawsuit filed in February, Cash App users allege that Cash App Investing and its owner, Block, were negligent in their response to two data breaches. The app allows users to send and receive money, invest in stocks, buy bitcoin and make payments to certain vendors.
The lawsuit accuses Cash App of failing to have proper security controls in place and not responding to concerns about fraudulent transactions happening on the app.

The proposed settlement is $15 million, though Cash App and Block both deny any liability or wrongdoing, according to the settlement website.
Who can file a claim for the Cash App settlement?
If your account was accessed without authorization, or if you’ve had fraudulent withdrawals or transfers, you can file a claim. You must have an active account, or your account must have been active between Aug. 23, 2018 and Aug. 20, 2024.
How to file a Cash App claim
Customers can file a claim on the Cash App settlement website. If you have a notice ID and confirmation code from a notice you got in the mail or email, you’ll be asked to enter that information. You can still file a claim even if you haven’t gotten a notice.
What is the deadline for Cash App claims?
The deadline is November 18 to file a claim under the settlement.
How much money can you get in the Cash App settlement?
The amount of money claimants receive depends on the number of people who file claims. People who were affected by the breaches can submit claims for up to $2,500, but they must have documentation to prove there were out-of-pocket losses.
