Square Cash App – A Traveler’s Best Friend!

March 13, 2017 By Liz 20 Comments


I hate borrowing money from other people, and it nags at my guts until I can pay it back, so I’ve always tried to avoid situations where I feel indebted to anyone. But… as a travel blogger, I frequently have to chip in on things like taxi fare, tips and parking. In a cash-less world, that means one person pays, and the rest pay back. Ugh.

The easiest solution I’ve found for settling those debts quickly is to use the Square Cash app. It makes it sooooo easy to pay your friends (or let them pay you). Instantly!

Just this week when my boyfriend offered to pick up my car from the airport for me, I needed to pay him back for the parking fees. Before my flight even left, I had that payment sent through Square Cash and erased from my list of worries.

When I got home, we grabbed a bite to eat and split the bill. I had a $20 dollar bill so I paid for it, and he sent me his half through Square Cash. I requested the cash, he paid it.

It makes for a happy relationship.

Another cool thing I LOVE about the NEW Square Cash app is that it has a built-in Visa virtual card number, so I don’t have to take the risk of using my actual credit card when making hotel reservations or booking activities at my destination. I can also use Apple Pay through the Square Cash app!

Payments are protected with a touch ID or passcode, and you can link up your Visa, MC or Discover debit card to transfer money. You can cash out to your bank for FREE, and standard deposits will show up the next business day. (You can also optionally cash out to your bank in seconds for a 1% fee.)

I’ve only been using Square Cash for about a month, and it’s already one of my must-have travel apps. I love it!

You guys need to try it. Download the Square Cash from the Apple App Store or Google Play Market now. You’ll have it set up and ready to go in minutes. I can’t wait to hear what you think about it.

Get the Square Cash app here!

    No, Square is a terrible option for travelers. Try using it when you’re abroad. You are blocked from using the app. It’s even in the terms of service: “You must use the Services in the United States and create an account with your email or a wireless telephone number you own.”

    “in the United States”

    So, this is a great tool when traveling within the US but useless outside it.

    That looks and sounds like a great app to have! I love that we have so many great apps to make financial transactions from our phones. It makes life so much easier!

    This is a really handy app. I would love to try it out, but I am a little scared. I am not big on technology, especially when it comes to ones dealing with money.

    Yep! My college daughter has me using this app 24/7. Haha. But really, it is so convenient to send my “broke college student” cash

    Same here! I dislike having to owe people money! This will be a great tool for me too. Thanks for sharing it, never knew it existed. Technology continues to amaze me.

    I’ll have to give this app a try. My boys always make fun of me because I barely have any apps. I need to get on the app bandwagon. 🙂

    This looks like an awesome app to have. I love the security features it provides its users. I will have to check it out too. I’m also letting my sister know. It would make it easier to transfer money to her daughter in college.

    Square Cash App sounds so convenient! It would surely make splitting cab fare, restaurant bills, and any other social activity much easier than trying to have everyone divvy up exact amounts of cash. And, I love how secure it is to send and receive payments.

    I have never used Square Cash before. It sounds like it is a really helpful app for all kinds of things. Perfect for when you don’t want to split the bill at a restaurant, or you can’t.

    The Square Cash App really looks like something we can all use especially when we can get money to someone easily and without using actual cash. I love it when everything works out fair and squarely.
