If you have recently heard about Cash App and its unique $Cashtag, then you might be interested to know more about this particular feature. Well, this has been developed by the team of Cash App for identifying individuals. In case you are not familiar with this, then you can consider it as a bank account number using which you are being identified in your bank, and your funds are deposited using this number. 

At the same time, many people get confused when it comes to differentiating between the username for the Cash App login and the $Cashtag. Well, in short, we can say that a $Cashtag is not your username at all. It only is your unique identifier that helps people recognize you in an easy manner. 

Keeping that aside, let's now take a look at the process to claim a new $Cashtag and change an existing one on its mobile app and on its web version. 

So, how do you claim a $Cashtag? 

While setting up your Cash App login credentials, you will be asked to fulfill a few easy conditions, provide some details, and verify them. During the same process, you are asked to select a $Cashtag as well. Yes, it's at the time of the Cash App sign up process that you are asked to choose your preferred $Cashtag. 

However, this $Cashtag will only get active when you link a debit card to your Cash App account. In addition to that, you may also change your $Cashtag as and when needed. But, one thing that needs to be noted down here is that you may choose to change your $Cashtag only twice. Also note that, whenever you change your $Cashtag, the previous one will become inactive and no other person would be able to use this one ever because you can switch back to the previous version as and when you want right after Cash App login. 

Steps to change your $Cashtag on its app 

Whether you have completed the Cash App sign up process on its app or on the web, you can change the $Cashtag from both platforms. Here's how: 

1. Complete the Cash App login process 
2. Now, tap on the "Profile" menu which is given at the top 
3. Further, you can select the "Personal" option 
4. Next up, tap on the $Cashtag field 
5. Assign a new $Cashtag and tap "Set" 

Change $Cashtag on the web platform 

Using Cash App is pretty convenient on the mobile phone as compared to its web platform. However, if you are someone who is using Cash App on the web, then you can refer to the following instructions to complete this task: 

1. First of all, you need to visit the official website of the Cash App 
2. Access the website via https://cash.app/ 
3. Now, complete the Cash App login process 
4. Further, you need to navigate to the toolbar which is present on the left side of the screen 
5. Hit the "Account" option and then open your "Settings" menu 
6. Navigate to the "Basic Info" section 
7. And then you may choose the $Cashtag option and select the "Edit" option 
8. Now, you can create a new $Cashtag and select "Save" 

As said above, one should note that they will be able to change their $Cashtags only two times during their whole journey with a Cash App login. So, make sure that you select the one which is closest to your preference. Your previous $Cashtag would become deactivated but will not be allocated to anyone else.
