CASH APP*NAME Charge (What It Is + Is It Legit?)

Identify the recipient

The CASH APP*NAME charge on your bank statement represents a person-to-person payment you sent through Cash App. The name following the asterisk is the Cash App username or display name of the person who received your money. Open your Cash App and check your transaction history to match the name on your bank statement with the payment you sent.

Confirm the payment in Cash App

Log into your Cash App account at cash.app and navigate to the Activity tab to review your recent transactions. Locate the specific payment that matches the CASH APP*NAME charge and verify the amount, date, and recipient match what appears on your bank statement. This confirms the charge is a legitimate person-to-person transfer you authorized.

Reach out to the recipient if needed

If you recognize the CASH APP*NAME charge but believe the amount is incorrect or the payment was sent by mistake, contact the recipient directly through Cash App by finding their profile in your transaction history. Cash App allows you to request money back from the recipient, though the other person must agree to return the funds since person-to-person payments are typically instant and not automatically reversible.
