Why bars, nightclubs and lounges do well with an ATM
Cash tips and cash tabs are faster for staff and better for the house. An ATM by the bar keeps customers from leaving to find cash and not coming back.
Late night is when bank ATMs are far away and yours is right there. Bars are some of the busiest ATM locations we place.
Cover charges, pool tables, jukeboxes and vending all run on cash.
What fits your store
Place the machine in a lit area within view of staff and cameras, near the entrance or the end of the bar. We bolt it down and restock around your busiest nights.
Three ways to put an ATM in your store
01Free placement
California Merchant Solutions buys the machine, installs and bolts it down, programs it, handles the processing, loads the cash, monitors it, maintains it and supplies the paper, with 24/7 support. You provide a power outlet and about three square feet of floor. You earn a share of the surcharge on every withdrawal.
02Merchant loaded
We supply and support the machine, you load it with your own cash. Because your money is doing the work, the surcharge split moves in your favor, typically 50/50 or a base amount per transaction. Withdrawn funds are redeposited to your account within 48 hours.
03Buy your own
Own the ATM outright, keep the whole surcharge and use our processing with no contract. Processing is free once the machine does 300 or more transactions a month, which is ordinary volume for a busy store. We ship in five to ten business days with express shipping and lift gate included, and every machine carries a parts warranty.

What we handle on a full service placement
We buy the ATM, deliver it, install and bolt it down, program it, run the processing, load the cash, monitor it remotely, maintain and repair it, supply the paper and answer the phone 24/7. Your part is a power outlet and about three square feet of floor.
Where we place
Across Southern California, including San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange County and the Inland Empire.
Venues we put ATMs in
Beyond storefronts we place and service machines in dispensaries, gas stations, night clubs, shopping centers, hotels, stadiums, airports, resorts, golf courses, parking lots, public spaces and any cash only business. If people are standing somewhere and paying cash, a machine belongs there.
Frequently asked questions
Is a bar a good ATM location?
Yes. Bars and nightclubs are among the highest volume placements because customers need cash for tips, cover, tabs and games, and bank ATMs are closed or far away at night.
What does it cost the bar?
Nothing under free placement. We buy, install, load and maintain the machine. You supply an outlet and about three square feet of floor.
How does the bar get paid?
You receive a share of the surcharge on every withdrawal, paid by ACH with a statement.
What if it gets damaged?
Full service machines are maintained and repaired by us. We recommend placing the ATM in camera view and bolting it to the floor, which we do at installation.
Can I own the machine instead?
Yes. A Genmega machine starts around $2,370 and you keep the whole surcharge. Processing is free once the machine does 300 or more transactions a month, and there is no contract. A bar at ordinary volume clears that easily.
