Direct vs Indirect Method

• The direct method involves adding your Chime account directly to your Cash App account via Plaid. This way, you can transfer money between them seamlessly.
• The indirect method requires using a linked bank account as an intermediary. You'll transfer money from Cash App to your linked bank account first and then from there to your Chime account.

Plaid Connection (Direct Method)

Cash App has partnered with Plaid to facilitate connections between their app and thousands of financial institutions.

Simply add a new bank account within the Cash App, and follow these steps:

1. Search for or select your financial institution.
2. Enter your credentials to authenticate your financial accounts.
3. Complete a security verification step.
4. If prompted, select the financial accounts you want to connect.
5. Complete the connection to your preferred application.

This will give you a direct connection between Cash App and Chime.

Bank Account Intermediary (Indirect Method)

Should you have any issues with the direct method of linking with Plaid, you can consider this option.

This will involve moving your money from Cash App to a different bank account you own, and then moving the money from there to Chime.

1. Add Your Bank Account to Cash App

Before initiating a transfer, ensure you have a linked bank account on Cash App.

To do this, you'll need your bank account's routing and account numbers.

2. Initiate a Withdrawal to Your Linked Bank Account

To cash out funds from your Cash App to your bank account, follow these steps:

1. Open your Cash App and navigate to the "Balance" tab on your home screen.
2. Tap "Cash Out."
3. Enter the amount you wish to withdraw.
4. Click "Cash Out" to begin the withdrawal process.

Keep in mind that it may take one to three days for the withdrawal to reflect in your bank account.

Be patient and wait until the funds are available in your bank account before proceeding to transfer them to your Chime account.

3. Transfer Money from Your Linked Bank Account to Chime

Once the funds are available in your linked bank account, you can transfer them to your Chime account through the app.

Final Thoughts

The time it takes to complete a transfer from Cash App to Chime varies depending on the method you choose.
