Cash and credit card use has been in decline for years and the pandemic accelerated people’s move to contactless payments. There are also 63 million Americans whose only financial options are money transfer apps.

People use Cash App as their primary bank account, and in some cases as their only bank account.

Cash App Lessons: Community

 Cash App didn’t invent #CashAppFriday.

Cash App’s genius was to get on the trend.

#CashAppFridays mark giveaways to people who tweet at it. Cash App figured out that: a) people use financial apps their friends are using, so creating social engagement is critical for growth; and b) the fastest way to social influence is to piggyback on the already existing social influence and amplify it through a go-to-market strategy that emphasizes social activity among Cash App’s initial following.

Cash App Lessons: Curation

Cash App Lessons: Curation

Cash App curates its brand narrative around the hustle ethos, hip hop aesthetics, and voices of those who have often been traditionally excluded from the establishment but who are in charge of cultural innovation. Cash App started with empathy for a particular group of people and their particular interests, tastes and values. The outcome is that Cash App’s users feel like there’s nothing out there that’s like it - and that they are creating culture together with the app and all others who use it.

The commercial activity becomes cultural activity.
