Transfer money to your bank

You can take money out of your Apple Cash account if needed. Just be aware of Apple’s limits for these transfers:

You can transfer up to $10,000 per transfer and up to $20,000 within a seven-day period from Apple Cash to your bank account. You can only transfer your money to a bank account in the United States.

Then, transfer money to your bank using Instant Transfer (1% fee) or a 1-3 Business Day transfer (free).

On iPhone, open the Wallet app, tap Apple Cash. On iPad, open the Settings app, tap Wallet & Apple Pay, select Apple Cash, and tap Info.

1. At the top, tap Transfer to Bank.
2. Type in the amount to transfer.
3. Tap Next.
4. Select either Instant Transfer or 1-3 Business Days.
5. Tap Transfer.
6. Confirm and verify with your passcode, Face ID, or Touch ID.

Instant Transfers take about 30 minutes and the other option takes, as the name implies, one to three business days.
