Incident history
LAST 90 DAYSAbout Cash App outages
Written by the HostTracker monitoring team · updated from live probe data.
Cash App has grown well beyond peer-to-peer transfers into a card, a direct-deposit account and an investing product, which means an outage can affect a great deal more than a payment to a friend - a declined Cash Card at a checkout, or a delayed direct deposit on payday, are the failures people feel most sharply. Those subsystems fail independently: the app can be reachable while card authorisations decline, or transfers can work while the investing side is unavailable. Payday and weekend evenings are its predictable load peaks, and because a large share of users rely on it as a primary account rather than a supplementary one, even short incidents draw a very rapid and very visible wave of reports.
Common causes of Cash App downtime
Payment and transfer service failures at peak periods, particularly evenings, weekends and paydays
Cash Card authorisation problems that decline in-store purchases while the app itself works
Direct-deposit delays, which usually originate with the sending payroll provider or bank rather than the app
Account verification, limit and risk-review holds that block specific actions rather than the service as a whole

Questions people ask during an outage
The live probe run on this page tests cash.app from a broad sample of HostTracker's 300+-location monitoring network - many independent networks at the same moment, rather than just your own connection. If every location fails to reach it, the outage is real and affects everyone; if only a few locations fail while most load normally, the problem is local to those regions or networks rather than Cash App being fully down. A single refresh from your own browser can never make that distinction, because it only ever tests from one vantage point on one network.
Yes. HostTracker lets you add any URL - including third-party services you depend on, not just your own website - as a monitored target, and notifies you automatically the moment it becomes unreachable. Before sending an alert, HostTracker re-verifies a failure from multiple locations in its 300+-location network, so you're notified about real, confirmed outages rather than a single location's momentary blip. The free plan checks two monitors every 30 minutes indefinitely at no cost; paid plans check as often as once a minute, with alerts available through SMS, email, voice call, and several messenger apps.
Card declines are usually specific rather than systemic. The common causes are an insufficient balance, a spending or ATM limit, a merchant category the card does not support, or a risk hold on the transaction - none of which is an outage, and all of which fail while the app itself works perfectly. Open the app and check the balance and any notification about the transaction; a declined payment normally leaves a trace explaining itself. A genuine outage looks broader: the app will not load, transfers fail as well as card payments, and other users report the same thing at the same time.
Most often not. Direct deposits are initiated by an employer's payroll provider and move through the banking system on a schedule, so the far more common causes of a late deposit are the sender's timing, a banking holiday, or a weekend rather than anything on the receiving side. Deposits also frequently arrive earlier or later than expected relative to a stated pay date. If the app is otherwise fully functional, an outage is an unlikely explanation for a missing deposit; if the app is also unreachable, that is a separate problem, and the check on this page will confirm it.
