Hosting one of my ATMs

Hosting means the machine is mine and the floor is yours. I pay for it, bring it in, bolt it down and keep it running. You get a share of what it makes, paid once a month.

How you get paid

Each withdrawal carries a surcharge that the customer sees and agrees to on the screen. Your part of it is set one of two ways: a share of each surcharge, or a flat amount per withdrawal. We pick one together and write it into a short agreement. Once a month you get paid, along with a statement of the withdrawals so you can check my math.

What it adds up to depends on how many people need cash at your counter. The calculator will give you a rough monthly number. One Butler laundromat runs about 12 withdrawals a day and its share has been over $240 a month (the write-up). A quiet shop will do less, and I'd rather tell you that before the machine goes in than after.

What it does for the store besides the check

Somebody who takes out $60 at your ATM tends to spend part of it before they leave. Bars see it in tips and in the people who would otherwise walk to the gas station for cash and not come back. Paying in cash also saves you the card fee on that sale.

When something goes wrong

You call or text me at (724) 264-8181. There's no dispatcher and no ticket number. I'm one person, so I won't pretend I'm there in ten minutes at 2 a.m., but I live here and I'm the one who comes out. The machines are EMV and PCI compliant, and they're bolted to the floor.

What the process looks like

You fill out the application or just call. I come look at the spot, we agree on the payout, you sign the agreement, and I bring the machine and set it up. If your location isn't a good fit, you'll hear that from me at the first step.
