@Luvsmyfam I see you got the info about Cash App. Zelle is another system to transfer money.
Honestly it's been known for years that sending cash in the mail is a recipe for disaster.

I use venmo, just download to your phone. Very easy and at least venmo I know is safe...never had a issue using for a few years.

@Luvsmyfam Different time - lots of different attitudes about honesty all across our country and the rest of the world.
Thieves go for the easy, big targets online and in person. Mail is definitely one.

Last month at least 3 checks sent to workers disappeared and to date have not ever surfaced. One of them was mine. All 3 were mailed from the Washington DC post office on K Street and sent to our town here in PA. The checks were re-written and Fed-exed to each of us. Very upsetting not be able to rely on the post office.

Years ago I would cringe when I found out that my mom sent cash (after the fact) to her grandkids for their birthdays. Luckily, she would always get a phone call from the recipient acknowledging the gift, took awhile to convince her to quit doing that, better safe than sorry.

I know you said you only send to immediate family, but who would give you their bank information? I wouldn't. Besides, if I am sending money or a gift I want it to be a surprise, not calling them to get their bank information. That's just me.

@Luvsmyfam My husband never got his fathers day card..there was a gift card inside. A friend sent her son a birthday card with a check in MARCH, so far the card has not been received and the check has not been cashed.

@Biftu That's not how it works. You don't have access to people's accounts. They need to also have the app with their account info set up.

@SamBrown is correct. You do not need the recipient's bank info, all you need is their phone number or their Cash App ID. They would of course have to have the app set up on their phone. Cash App and Venmo work the same. I never send cash through the mail. I use either Zelle, Cash App or Apple Cash. Apple Cash is my and most of my recipients' preferred method.
