If you are in need of a little extra cash during a trip to the grocery store, Cash App can be a great help. But how do you add money to your Cash App card at Walgreens?
The process is pretty straightforward and can be done in-store by visiting the money services desk. Keep reading to find out more.
Adding Money To A Cash App Card At Walgreens
As mentioned above, you can add money to a Cash App card at the money services desk. Adding funds to your Cash App card can be done in one of two ways which you can find below.
Adding Money Online
You can add funds to your Cash App card by transferring money from your bank account directly to your card. You won’t need to visit the money services desk if you choose this option as the app will do everything for you.
Adding Money In Person
To add money in person you will need to approach a Walgreens team member via the money services desk. From here, you will need to hand over the amount you would like to deposit onto your card along with the Cash App card itself. The cashier will then load the money onto your card and give you a receipt to confirm the transaction has been successful.
Do I Need To Enter a PIN To Add Paper Money To My Cash App Card?
You will not need to enter your four-digit PIN number when adding money at Walgreens. The cashier may ask you to swipe your card to complete the transaction.
Withdrawing Money From An ATM Using A Cash App Card
Most Walgreens stores have ATM machines which may come in handy if you need tangible cash. While some ATM machines do not charge a fee for withdrawal, Cash App withdrawals come with a charge of $2.
To withdraw cash, you will need to enter your Cash App card into the machine as normal and type in your four-digit PIN number which you will have received either in the mail or upon activating your card.
How Much Money Can I Withdraw From A Cash App Card At An ATM
As with most ATM transactions, there is a limit for Cash App withdrawals which is $310. However, you can only withdraw up to $1000 over a 7-day period.
Cash App Benefits
Apart from being able to use a Cash App card in grocery stores, what are the other benefits? Let’s find out.
Quick Transactions
Using the Cash App service means you can send, receive and invest money much quicker than if using a traditional banking service (which can sometimes take days to transfer). You can think of it like Venmo or PayPal, except you can deposit your own money onto a debit card which can then be used anywhere that accepts this payment method.
Safe To Use
Cash App is safe to use as all transactions are encrypted, plus the app has several security features which make it difficult for hackers to get into. However, there are always risks, so we recommend taking additional measures such as enabling the security lock and protecting your passwords.
Cash App: What Are The Disadvantages?
Now we’ve covered the advantages of using the Cash App, what are the disadvantages?
Funds Are Not Insured
Unlike traditional banking systems that insure funds up to a certain amount, you are not covered at all with Cash App. This means that if your account is hacked, there is no way of getting your money back.
Accounts Do Not Earn Interest
Although interest rates are fairly low with traditional bank accounts, your money will still earn money over time. This is not the case when it comes to Cash App which means if you leave your money sitting in your account for ten years, it won’t be worth as much if and when you choose to withdraw it.
How Much Money Can I Deposit On My Cash App Card?
You can deposit up to $1000 per 7 days or $5000 per 30 days. Therefore, you can add a deposit of $5 to $500 each time.
For example, you could add $200 a day over 5 days and thus you will have reached your deposit limit for the week. After seven days have passed, you will then be able to add more.
Final Words
Adding money to your Cash App card at Walgreens is pretty easy. All you need to do is head over to the Money Services desk and provide the cashier with your Cash App card and the money you wish to deposit. The cashier will then scan your card and add the funds before giving you a receipt to confirm the transaction has been successful.
