# cash app refund
To request a Cash App refund, find the completed transaction in your Activity tab, select it, and then choose "Report an issue" to report the payment and start the refund process. For incorrect payments you've sent, the quickest way to get a refund is to contact the recipient directly and ask them to refund you through the app. If the recipient doesn't refund you, you can dispute the transaction with Cash App; they will investigate the claim.
# Requesting a refund from a completed transaction:
Go to your Activity tab: Open the Cash App and navigate to your transaction history.
Select the completed payment: Find the payment you want refunded and tap on it.
Report an issue: Choose the option to "Report an issue" or "Report a payment" from the transaction details.
Follow the prompts: Select the reason for your refund request, such as a fraudulent payment or an incorrect amount.
What to do if you sent money to the wrong person:
Contact the recipient: The fastest way to get your money back is to contact the person you sent money to and ask them to send it back to you.
Dispute the transaction: If the recipient doesn't send the money back, you can dispute the transaction within the Cash App.
Contact Cash App Support: To dispute the transaction, select it from your activity, choose the option to "dispute this transaction," and Cash App will investigate the claim.
## Tips for successful refunds:
Act quickly: Initiate the refund request as soon as possible, as the process is faster for recent or incomplete transactions.
Contact support: If the above steps don't work, contact Cash App support through the app to report your issue.
Report scams: If you've been scammed, report the transaction to Cash App and also to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

# Will Cash App refund money if scammed?
Cash App does not automatically refund money when you're scammed because transactions are instant and irreversible, but you can attempt to recover funds by canceling a pending transaction, requesting a refund from the recipient, or disputing the transaction with Cash App. You must report the scam to Cash App through the app's support feature, notify your bank if a debit card or bank account was involved, and also report the scam to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
# How do I force a refund on Cash App?
You can't "force" a refund on Cash App, as refunds are sent as requests to the recipient, who must approve them. To initiate a refund request, go to your Activity tab, select the payment, tap the three-dot menu icon, and then tap Refund. If the refund isn't approved, or if you were scammed, select Report an Issue after tapping the payment to report it to Cash App support.
For a standard refund request (recipient must approve):
Open Cash App and tap the Activity tab on your home screen.
Select the payment for which you want a refund.
Tap the three-dots menu icon (•••) in the top right corner.
Tap Refund and then tap OK to send the request to the recipient.
If the refund is not approved or you've been scammed:
Go to the Activity tab and select the payment you want to dispute.
# Tap Report an Issue.
Select a reason for your dispute.
Tap Next to submit the request to Cash App.
Important considerations:
Recipient approval is required: The recipient has the choice to accept or deny the refund request.
Time limits: If you sent money to the wrong account, you have 30 days to report an issue.

Referral Program: Invite friends and family to join Cash App using your referral code. When they sign up and complete a qualifying first transaction (often sending $5 or more), both you and your referral can earn a bonus, typically between $5 and $15.

Verify Communications: Cash App will never ask for sensitive information like your PIN or login code via phone, email, or text.
Always verify communications through official channels within the app or on the official website.
