Do cash gifts sent to me automatically show up in my bank account?

No—whenever you receive a cash gift, the money is put in your Birdie Wallet. You need to initiate a bank transfer for the funds to be sent to your bank account. You can do that by navigating to the Birdie app, tapping the account icon at the bottom of the app, and then clicking "Transfer". Please note that transfers are reviewed which could cause a delay or for funds to be frozen or removed from your Birdie account.
