Apple Cash is a convenient way to send and receive money, but sometimes it can be frustrating when it won't transfer to your bank account.
If Apple Cash won't transfer to your bank, it could be due to a technical issue with your Apple device or a problem with your bank's online banking system.
Make sure your Apple device is up to date with the latest software to avoid any technical glitches.
If your Apple device is outdated, you can check for updates in the Settings app.
Troubleshooting Apple Cash
Apple Cash won't transfer to your bank? Don't worry, we've got you covered. Restarting your iPhone or turning Apple Pay on and off might seem like a simple fix, but it's worth a try.
Try re-adding your bank account information, as one user did after experiencing the same issue with their iPhone 14. This might resolve the problem, but it's not a guarantee.
If the transfer icon is dim, it's likely due to an issue with the account information. In one case, the user had to reset the bank transfer information twice before it worked.
Payment Issue
If you're experiencing a payment issue with Apple Cash, it's possible that the "transfer money to bank" feature isn't working as expected.
Apple Pay users have reported that clicking "transfer money to bank" results in a bottom sheet confirmation that vanishes within a few milliseconds, making it impossible to confirm the transfer.
This issue might be due to a technical glitch or a problem with the app's settings.
Not Working
If you're experiencing issues with Apple Pay not transferring funds to your bank account, you're not alone. Apple Pay will let you enter the request, but the "transfer" icon is dim and won't complete the transaction.
Tried turning off, restarting your phone, turning Apple Pay back on, and it remains the same problem. You've also tried re-adding the bank account information, but still nothing.
This issue has been reported by users who have been using Apple Pay for years with the same account without problems. It just stopped working on their iPhone 14 with all the current updates.
Re-starting and resetting the bank transfer information twice in accordance with Apple's instructions has not resolved the issue.
Understanding Apple Cash Limits
Apple Cash has its own set of limits that you should be aware of, especially when trying to transfer funds to your bank account.
The maximum amount you can transfer from Apple Cash to your bank in one transaction is $10,000.
You can transfer up to $20,000 per week, but only to bank accounts or debit cards in the United States.
If you're part of an Apple Cash Family, the maximum balance is just $4,000, so be mindful of that if you're trying to send or receive large amounts.
Here's a quick rundown of the limits you should keep in mind:
Daily Cash rewards can be transferred to your bank account, and the money can post in as little as a few days or within minutes, depending on your delivery choice.
Fees and Charges
Transferring Apple Cash to your debit card comes with a fee of 1.5% of the transfer amount, with a minimum fee of 25 cents and a maximum fee of $15.
This fee applies every time you make a transfer, so it's essential to consider the cost before using Apple Cash for immediate payments.
If you don't need the money right away, transferring Apple Cash to your bank account is a better option as it's free.
Fees

Fees can be a real drag, especially if you're not aware of them. Transferring Apple Cash to your debit card can cost you 1.5% of the transfer amount, with a minimum fee of 25 cents and a maximum fee of $15 every time you do it.
If you don't need the money immediately, transferring to your bank account is the way to go. It's free, so you can avoid any extra charges.
Transferring instantly to your debit card will set you back 1.5% of the transfer amount, which can add up quickly.
What's the Difference Between Pay and Pay?
Apple Cash is a digital card in your Wallet app, holding money received from friends and family, and can be used to pay for things anywhere that accepts Apple Pay.
You can use Apple Cash to pay for things, but it's not the only way to make payments with Apple devices. Apple Pay is software that allows you to make secure, contactless payments from your Apple Cash or any card loaded into your Apple Wallet.
Apple Pay is convenient because you don't need to carry all of your cards with you, you just need a compatible Apple device like an iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, or Mac.
The key difference between Apple Cash and Apple Pay is that Apple Cash is a specific digital card, while Apple Pay is the software that enables payments.
Alternative Solutions
If you're having trouble transferring Apple Cash to your bank, you can consider alternative solutions to send and receive money from other people in the Messages app and Wallet app.
You can use Apple Cash to fund Apple Pay purchases, making it a convenient option for online or in-store transactions.
The Messages app and Wallet app offer a seamless way to send and receive money, making it easy to use as a peer-to-peer money transfer service.
Similar services like Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal also offer peer-to-peer money transfer capabilities, giving you more options to choose from.
These services can be a useful backup plan if you're having trouble transferring Apple Cash to your bank.
