Cash App is entering the mobile carrier market with an AT&T-based MVNO offering unlimited 5G data for $40 monthly, including taxes and fees. The service, powered by Gigs, is rolling out to select users with wider availability planned soon.

Cash App's new mobile service mirrors pricing and infrastructure already deployed by Klarna's mobile offering, which launched last year through the same Gigs platform. The $40 plan includes unlimited 5G data with no overage charges. The rollout begins with select users, with broader availability expected in the coming months. Cash App plans to integrate the service with its existing products, including connections to the Cash App Green rewards program and Cash App Families, the company's parental control feature for managing accounts for minors. The move positions Cash App deeper into financial services bundling, combining banking, peer-to-peer payments, and now mobile connectivity under one platform. Square, Cash App's parent company, has not disclosed pricing details beyond the base unlimited 5G plan or additional service tiers that may be available.
