If they're at least 13 years old and part of an Apple Cash Family, teens can transfer funds, but the transfer limit is $2,000 per transaction and up to $4,000 every seven days.
You can also consider transferring funds to an Apple high-yield savings account if you have an Apple Card, which earns a strong interest rate and has no monthly fees.
The account can be accessed from your Wallet app, making it a convenient option for managing your finances.
How Long to Open a Bank Account?

Opening a bank account can be a straightforward process, but it does take some time. Standard transfers from Apple Cash to a bank account typically take 1 to 3 business days.

If you choose the 1-3 Business Days option, your funds should transfer within that timeframe. This option is free, but it may take a little longer to see the money in your bank account.
There are two transfer options: Instant Transfer, which charges a small fee, and 1-3 Business Days, which is free but may take longer. If you select the Instant Transfer option, your money may post in as little as a few minutes.

- Double-click the side button to confirm the transfer. Then authenticate with Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode.
Once you've initiated the transfer, you can expect your funds to be available within the specified timeframe.
1-3 Business Days
The 1-3 Business Days option is a popular choice for transferring Apple Cash to a bank account. It's free, but it can take up to three business days for the money to be deposited into your bank account.
If you choose the 1-3 Business Days option, you'll need to link a bank account to your Apple Wallet app. This will allow you to transfer money to your bank account using the Automated Clearing House (ACH) transfer method.
To confirm the transaction, you'll need to use Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode. This is a secure way to authenticate the transfer and ensure that your funds are sent to the correct bank account.

The 1-3 Business Days option is a good choice if you're not in a hurry to receive your funds. It's also a good idea to check your bank account for any fees associated with receiving ACH transfers.
Here are the steps to follow to transfer Apple Cash to a bank account using the 1-3 Business Days option:

General Information
Apple Pay is a digital wallet service that allows you to make payments using your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch. You can cash out Apple Pay using a debit card or bank account.
To start, you need to have a valid debit card or bank account linked to your Apple Pay account. This is because Apple Pay requires a bank account to transfer funds.
You can cash out Apple Pay through the Wallet app on your iPhone or iPad.
Other Considerations

If you're experiencing problems with Apple Cash, there are a few other things to keep in mind. Make sure you have installed the latest update for Apple Wallet, and that you have the latest version of iOS installed (if you're using an iPhone).
A stable internet connection is also essential for Apple Wallet to work correctly. Check that you have a good signal, and if you're using WiFi, ensure the network you're connected to has internet access.
Not all debit cards are compatible with the withdrawal function of Apple Cash. Your debit card must be a Visa debit card and eligible for the service. Contact the company that issued your card to find out if it's compatible.
It's easy to make a mistake when entering long account numbers and routing numbers. Double-check that the bank account details you entered are correct.
If you don't see the withdrawal in your bank statement after 2 hours (transfer to a debit card) or 3 days (transfer to a bank account), contact Apple Support for help. Also, reach out to Support if your transfer keeps failing and you can't figure out why.
Here's a summary of the key points to keep in mind:
- Install the latest update for Apple Wallet and iOS.
- Ensure a stable internet connection.
- Use a Visa debit card and verify its compatibility with Apple Cash.
- Double-check bank account details.
- Contact Apple Support if you encounter issues.
What to Know

You can transfer up to $10,000 in a single transaction and $20,000 within a 7-day period to your bank account with Apple Cash. For family plan users, these amounts get reduced to $2,000 and $4,000, respectively.
The minimum transfer amount is $1, but if your account has less than that, you can transfer your full balance. I've seen this happen with users who have a small balance from a previous transaction.
Apple charges a transfer fee based on your total transfer amount, but it has a minimum of $0.25 and a maximum of $15. This fee is calculated as 1.5 percent of the transfer amount.
Instant Transfers aren't always "instant" – your funds are usually posted in real-time, but processing can take up to 30 minutes. I've noticed that this can happen if there's a high volume of transactions at the same time.
If a user chooses standard bank transfers, Apple will observe the same holidays as the Federal Reserve, which may delay transfers. This is something to keep in mind if you're planning a transfer around a holiday.
If the money wasn't transferred after two hours using Instant Transfer or three days using standard bank transfers, contact Apple Support for assistance.
