We want to redefine the world's relationship with money to make it more relatable, instantly available, and universally accessible. This is our mission, and it's why working at Cash App means so much more than a job.

We've been a distributed team since day one, and many of our roles can be done remotely from the countries where Cash App operates. No matter the location, we tailor our experience to ensure our employees are creative, productive, and happy.
