Cash Stash

Example: a graduation gift

Schedule a cash gift for a future milestone

You can set aside cash now and have it released only when someone reaches a milestone, such as graduating or getting married.

Your side: setting it up

  1. 1
    Open an account and use the free test wallet to try the steps first.
  2. 2
    Create a task such as “Has Sam graduated?” and set the gift amount and a message.
  3. 3
    The gift is held in your own Cash Stash wallet until the task is complete.
  4. 4
    Name a fallback person who receives the gift if Sam can never be reached.

Who submits and who checks

The recipient (or a person you nominate) uploads proof — for graduation, a certificate.

Cash Stash or your trusted contact checks the certificate against the task you wrote. Nothing is released until it is approved.

Recipient's side: what they see

  1. 1
    An email from Cash Stash explaining a gift is waiting and what proof is needed. See how to check it is genuine.
  2. 2
    They sign in at cashstash.co.uk and upload their certificate.
  3. 3
    Once approved, the gift and your message are released to them.

If the evidence is rejected

The recipient is told why and can submit better proof. If no acceptable proof arrives, after the follow-up attempts, the gift amount stays in your account. If all your gifts and tasks do not take your account to zero then the remaining amount goes to your nominated fallback person. Cash Stash never keeps it. See the Terms, clause 11A.

Fees

Network fees apply to crypto transfers. Bank payouts carry a 1% fee paid by you on top, so the recipient receives the full amount you set. Plans are on the pricing page.
