Sponsored Accounts Overview
Sponsored Accounts
If you are a parent or guardian with a verified Cash App account, you can invite someone between the ages of 13 and 17 to use Cash App and access features like P2P transactions (including recurring allowance payments), Cash App Card, Cash App Pay, direct deposit, Boost, bitcoin*, and stocks.
Once you sponsor their account, you become the legal owner of the sponsored account and the person you sponsor will be considered an authorized user of your sponsored account. Sponsors can track activity in the app, and turn specific features on/off. Sponsors may also end sponsorship at any time by contacting Cash App Support.
Cash balances (including Savings) of both sponsored accounts and their sponsors are FDIC insured up to $250,000 through our partner banks. If you have multiple Cash App accounts, and/or multiple sponsored accounts, they are included under the same insurance coverage. After sponsorship ends, if they do not have a Cash App Card, sponsors will need to order one to maintain FDIC coverage. Bitcoin and investing balances are not covered by FDIC insurance.
