How we check Square Cash
No evidence of problems with Square Cash. Our last recorded check found it behaving normally. That does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.
Every check runs a four-tier cascade and stops at the first tier that gives a clear answer: Square Cash's official status feed, then a direct HTTP probe, then an ICMP network ping, and finally reports from visitors. The Verification tier box above tells you which one produced the verdict you are looking at. When enough separate people report a problem for it to be well outside what Square Cash normally sees, that counts as evidence too, which is how a partial fault can show here before an operator's own status page catches up.
Square Cash (square.com) is re-checked continuously, and this page picks up any change on its own, with no refresh needed.

What to do when Square Cash is not working
First check the banner above. If it shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Square Cash's side and waiting is usually the only option. If it shows nothing wrong, verify your linked card or bank account is current and not expired, check that your recipient's details are correct, and confirm your account has not hit daily or weekly transfer limits.

Frequently asked questions
Is Square Cash down right now?
No. Our checks are finding no problems with Square Cash right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Square Cash continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.
What usually goes wrong with Square Cash?
The problems visitors report most often on this page are checkout or payment, can't connect, can't log in, no response / timing out, messages not sending, website / app down and 5xx error pages. Those are the options the report button offers for Square Cash, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.
Why is Square Cash payments not going through for me when this page says it is fine?
Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Square Cash specifically, Square Cash has separate systems for peer transfers, card processing, and bank account routing that can fail independently, and your recipient's bank may also be rejecting the deposit. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.
How do I tell whether it is Square Cash or my own connection?
For Square Cash, try sending a test payment to yourself or a trusted contact on a different network, then check your Square Cash transaction history and your bank's incoming transfers. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.
What should I do while Square Cash is down?
If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Square Cash's side. Specifically: do not retry payments repeatedly, as each attempt may queue a duplicate transaction that processes when service returns, resulting in multiple charges. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.
How does status.buzz check Square Cash?
Continuously, around the clock. Square Cash does not publish a machine-readable status feed, so we cannot read a verdict from them. We probe square.com directly over HTTP, fall back to an ICMP ping if that is inconclusive, and weigh reports from visitors. That means we can tell you the service is unreachable, but not what Square Cash says about it. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.
Does Square Cash have an official status page?
Yes, at status.cash.app, and it is linked further up this page. That is Square Cash's own account of their service and it is the place to look for their estimate of a fix. We read it where we can, but we publish our own observations beside it rather than only repeating theirs, because an operator's status page can lag a problem their users are already hitting.
Is status.buzz affiliated with Square Cash?
No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Square Cash or square.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Square Cash's own support, not us.
