Cash App users can now pool money for group payments — even with non-users

Cash App, the popular mobile payment platform, has introduced a new feature that allows users to pool money for group payments. This feature enables users to collect contributions from a group, even if some members are not Cash App users. The new group payment functionality aims to simplify the process of splitting costs for shared expenses, such as vacations, gifts, or other group activities. Users can create a "pool" and invite others to contribute, regardless of whether they have a Cash App account. Non-users can join the pool by providing their phone number or email address. The feature streamlines the process of collecting and managing group payments, eliminating the need for manual coordination or multiple transactions. It also provides visibility into the pool's status, allowing users to track contributions and ensure everyone has paid their share. This update from Cash App reflects the growing demand for seamless financial collaboration tools, particularly as remote work and social distancing have become more prevalent. The new group payment feature aims to enhance the app's functionality and make it a more versatile platform for managing shared financial responsibilities.
