Cash App Payment Completed But Not Received
When a Cash App payment is completed but not received it requires troubleshooting to ensure funds arrive in the intended account and do not face unexpected issues. In many cases, you may need to contact Cash App directly for help determining the causes of the delay and finding solutions to the problem.
Alternatively, if you are looking for information on the certificate of deposits, specifically a no-penalty CD, you can access our free guide linked here for more information covering this topic.
Will I Get Notified If My Payment Through Cash App is Not Received?
Yes, you will get notified if your payment through Cash App is not received. Cash App informs users by letting them know that the payment cannot be completed. In certain instances, Cash App may inform the user why the payment failed to be completed. However, in many instances, including those involving suspected fraud, Cash App will not share any additional information.
Depending on the reason for using a payment service, Venmo goods and services might also be worth considering instead of Cash App. This is especially true if you’re looking for a payment method that allows merchants to directly receive payment from customers through the Venmo app.
Can a Payment Pending Be Canceled?
Yes, it is possible to cancel a pending payment in Cash App. However, the payment needs to be canceled prior to the recipient accepting it. If the recipient has already accepted the payment, it will not be possible to cancel. Additionally, there are other factors that can influence whether a pending payment can be canceled, so cancelation is not guaranteed.
To cancel a pending payment in Cash App, you can use the following steps:
- Open Cash App
- Open transaction history
- Select the payment you want to cancel
- Open the payment
- Select “Cancel Payment”
- Confirm cancellation
- Close Cash App

Frequently Asked Questions
Below are four of the most common questions we receive from people looking into why my cash app payment was completed but not received. If you have further questions you would like to ask our team, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
How Long Does It Take for Cash App Payment to Be Received?
How long it takes for a Cash App payment to be received depends on several factors. That said, in most cases, Cash App payments are instantaneous. If a payment is delayed, it may be due to compliance or security concerns, an issue with the connected bank account, or recipient information. When these factors delay payments, they can usually be resolved within 48 to 72 hours.
Why Is It Taking So Long to Receive My Cash App Payment?
There are a number of reasons why your Cash App payment may be taking longer than normal to be received. That said, the primary reason for delays in payments is an issue with the network. Additionally, if you are receiving a payment from a new sender, it’s also possible that they used the incorrect information when sending you the payment.
How Do I Know If Someone Received My Cash App Payment?
To know if someone receives your cash app payment, you can open the app and review transaction history for the specific payment in question. The status of the payment will either show as “Pending” or “Completed”.
Can Cash App Fail After Completed?
Yes, it’s possible for a cash app transfer to fail after it has been completed. In fact, this is true with any money service platform. That said, it’s uncommon for transfers to fail after completion. So, when this happens, it is usually due to a compliance issue, connectivity issues with the network, or an error by the sender when inputting the recipient’s information.
