Cash App → Chime
The safer Cash App route. Walkthrough below.
WHY THIS ROUTE
Cash App sometimes flags direct payments to certain accounts, causing account holds or reversals. Routing through Chime breaks that pattern — your payment lands faster and cleaner, and we cover the tiny instant-transfer fee on your end.
Open the Cash App on your phone. Make sure you have the amount of your order ready in your Cash App balance (or linked to a card you'll use).
If you don't already have Chime, download it from the App Store or Google Play. Set up the free Spending Account — no minimum balance, no monthly fee. You'll get a routing + account number that Cash App can send to.
In Cash App, tap the Banking tab, then Add Cash / Transfer. Send the exact amount of your order to your Chime account using the instant transfer option (small fee — we'll reimburse).
Once the balance lands in Chime (usually 1-5 minutes), open Chime and send a Pay Anyone to the handle The Captain gave you. Put your order ID in the memo.
Open your Telegram chat with @Flight420_bot, drop the Chime confirmation screenshot or type DONE. Admin verifies within minutes. You're on the manifest.
Flight 420 reimburses the Cash App → Chime instant transfer fee on every order that uses this route. Send the exact order total — if you paid a fee, add it to the memo and we'll comp it on the next drop.
COMMON QUESTIONS
How long does the whole thing take?+
5-15 minutes. Chime is usually the fastest part. Cash App → Chime lands in under 2 minutes with the instant transfer option.
Why not just send Cash App direct?+
You can — it's listed as an option too. But Cash App direct has a higher chance of flagging, and if it holds, your order waits. Chime is our recommended path for a reason.
What if the handle changes between when I saw it and when I'm about to pay?+
Good catch. The Captain rotates handles across the team, so always check the LATEST handle shown in your chat right before paying. If in doubt, ask in the chat.
I already use Venmo / Zelle / crypto — can I use those instead?+
For the MVP we're only taking Cash App (direct or via Chime). Other methods are coming. Chat with The Captain to ask what's currently available.
