    Bring your phone to the deposit location. Once you arrive to the store, tell a cashier you'd like to deposit money into Cash App by scanning your barcode. The cashier will not need to swipe your Cash Card—the only thing they'll need for the deposit is your barcode.

    • At most paper money deposit locations, you can walk right up to a cashier. If you're visiting a large store like Walmart or HEB, you'll need to head to the customer service or money center desk near the store's entrance.
    • Some merchants may require ID for verification to make a deposit, so have your ID ready.

    • If the cashier doesn't know how to help you, tap the question mark ? or Need help? below the barcode to bring up instructions.

    Pay the cashier. You can deposit as little as $5 but no more than $500 per deposit. There's also a $1 fee for each paper money deposit.[2]

    • You can deposit a total of $1000 every 7 days (rolling), and $4000 over 30 days.
