What Cash App? This one?: https://cash.app/


If so, that has nothing to do with Apple, but if you tried to buy something or started a subscription or free trial and did not cancel it, it may have renewed and tried to charge you through the payment method added to your Apple Account. If the payment method was this cash app card, then it would be unable to charge you if its locked.


You need to unlock it, or add a different payment method to your Apple account to complete the charge, whatever it may be.
