Bitstop charges a transaction fee that is included in the exchange rate shown on screen. There are no hidden charges added after the fact. The rate you see on the confirmation screen is the exact rate applied to your purchase. This is called an 'all-in' rate, meaning the fee is baked into the price per coin rather than displayed as a separate line item.
Exchange rates are set in real time and update continuously based on market conditions. Because crypto prices fluctuate, the rate at the time you confirm your transaction may differ slightly from the rate when you first inserted cash. The ATM locks in the rate at the moment you tap 'Confirm,' so what you see on the summary screen is what you get.
Purchase minimums and maximums are shown on the ATM screen before you confirm. ID verification may be required above certain amounts, and the thresholds can vary by state. The machine will prompt you when verification is needed. Your daily and weekly limits depend on your verification tier, which you can raise in the Bitstop app.
If you're comparing rates, keep in mind that crypto exchange apps often charge fees separately, while ATM rates include all costs in the displayed price. The convenience of cash, no account setup, and instant access to your crypto is reflected in the rate. For current rates, the most accurate place to check is at the machine itself. Rates vary by location and market conditions.
