All my Apple Cash disappeared at the beginning of December. All the transactions were visible in the app but the balance was zero. Talked to two people at Apple Support and one at Green Dot Corp (that’s the partner that handles Apple Cash) and about a week later my balance reappears.

You need to keep an eye on these things…
