Over the past few years, Cash App has become the most popular payment transfer app in the US. But recently, data breaches and security flaws put users’ privacy at risk. Due to this, Cash App had to settle for $15 million.

By February 2025, many users want to know if they are eligible for this settlement and how to claim it. In this article, we will give you complete information about eligibility, the claim process, legal aspects and payment updates.

Cash App Settlement 2025 – What is the matter?

Cash App suffered two major data breaches in 2021 and 2023, leaking personal and financial information of about 8.2 million users. These incidents include –

• Unauthorized access by a former employee, which led to the leak of sensitive data.
• The problem of recycled mobile numbers, which caused many people to face fraud.
