How much does Coinme charge at a Coinstar kiosk?

Coinstar's FAQ describes a 4% transaction fee plus a spread set by the crypto provider, and the all-in cash exchange fee is widely reported around 16.5% at many locations, varying by store and amount. Anytime Capital's cash pricing starts from 4% at its Atlanta branch or by mail.

Does Coinme have a phone number?

Coinme does not publish a support phone line; help is through chat and tickets at support.coinme.com and in the app. Anytime Capital can be reached at (470) 748-2530, by email, at its Atlanta branch, or at its Miami office.

Is Coinme available in New York?

No. Coinme is licensed in 48 states and lists New York and Vermont as unavailable. Anytime Capital confirms eligibility state by state during verification; call the branch to check.

Coinme was founded in Seattle in 2014 and has been backed by investors including MoneyGram. In January 2026 Polygon Labs announced an agreement to acquire Coinme, alongside Sequence, in a deal worth more than $250 million, with Coinme saying it would keep running its licensed exchange and wallet.

Can I sell Bitcoin for cash with Coinme?

Yes, at participating MoneyGram counters, subject to limits. Anytime Capital also buys Bitcoin for cash at its Atlanta branch, and pays out by ACH, wire or to its FDIC-insured cash account with a debit card.

Can I switch from Coinme to Anytime Capital without moving my crypto?

Yes. Withdraw from Coinme to a wallet you control (or leave it there), create an Anytime Capital account, verify once, and paste any wallet address at checkout. Nothing you already hold needs to move.

How does Anytime Capital pricing compare with Coinme?

Anytime Capital quotes one all-in number: card, Apple Pay and Google Pay orders start from 4% with the spread included, and the amount you pay and the crypto you receive are both on screen before you confirm. Coinme prices in the Coinme app, a widely reported 1.49% exchange fee plus a 3.25% card processing fee on debit purchases, with a roughly 4% spread in the quoted price on top; at a Coinstar kiosk, a 4% transaction fee plus a spread that brings the reported all-in cash fee to 16.5% at many locations, roughly 4.74%–8.74% on the headline, with coins sit in a Coinme custodial wallet until you send them out, with the network fee charged on the way. Blockchain network fees apply at both. Compare the crypto that lands on the same order size rather than the headline rate.

Is Anytime Capital regulated?

Anytime Capital is a U.S.-based money services business registered with FinCEN, serving customers worldwide, with a physical branch in Atlanta and an office in Miami. Identity verification is required before you can transact, the same as at every compliant platform.
