Abstract
A method, apparatus, and computer readable storage to provide a cash line from a cash provider to a user in which the user is permitted to withdraw cash from the cash line. The cash line can be automatically increased by the user taking certain actions, such as the user friending the cash provider on a social networking site such as FACEBOOK. The cash line can also be increased if the user provides an email address of a user's friend and that friend actually signed up with the cash provider and receives their own cash line.
