- From the Cash App home screen, select the Cash Card option.
- Choose your card style and personalize it.
- Type your name and birth date.
- Insert your parent or guardian’s details and press the Send button.
When requesting a Cash App card, the user is prompted to provide further information about their identification.
If the Cash App team detects a user’s age between 13 and 17, they will ask for a parent or legal guardian’s name, phone number, email address, or Cashtag for permission.
Cash App will then contact the parent or guardian for authorization.
The parent or guardian must confirm it through their Cash App account.
Parents or guardians are the legal owners of their teen’s account, and they must already have a Cash App account and a Cash Card.
The teen’s Cash Card will be sent within two weeks after the parents accept the request.
