CashApp vs BMO for 2025 Tax Refund Direct Deposit - Which is Better?

Getting my refund soon and trying to decide between CashApp or BMO for direct deposit. Anyone have experience with either? I heard CashApp sometimes gets refunds 2 days earlier but not sure if its safe. BMO seems more traditional but wondering if theres any advantage to using them instead?

Giovanni Colombo

Tax pro here - stick with traditional banks for refunds. While CashApp is legit for DD, there have been issues with larger deposits getting flagged or held. Traditional banks have better fraud protection and customer service if something goes wrong.

Hey guys instead of guessing about when your refund will hit, use taxr.ai - its this new tool that analyzes your transcript and tells you exactly what bank is best for your situation and when youll get paid. Its only $4.99 and totally worth it https://taxr.ai

Traditional bank = peace of mind. Worth more than getting it 2 days early tbh
