Step 02 of 04

Deposit and invest

Choose the ownership level that aligns with your investment goals and fund your position through our secure payment system.

BTM Vendor offers two primary investment structures. Co-ownership allows you to hold a fractional stake in one or more machines, starting from $5,000, and receive a proportional share of monthly revenue. Full ownership at $50,000 gives you complete ownership of a dedicated machine placed in a verified premium location.

Funding is accepted via domestic bank transfer, wire transfer, and major cryptocurrencies. All funds are held securely and applied directly to your investment once your preferred ownership structure has been confirmed.

Multiple payment methods

Bank transfer, wire transfer and major cryptocurrency are all accepted with no processing surcharge.

Two ownership structures

Co-ownership from $5,000 or full machine ownership at $50,000 with detailed monthly reporting.

Confirmation within 24 hours

Your investment is confirmed and your machine assignment is communicated within one business day of funds clearing.

We install and manage everything

Once your investment is confirmed, our operations team takes complete ownership of every aspect of getting your machine live and keeping it running at peak performance.

Our location strategy team identifies and secures a verified high-traffic site using our proprietary route-testing methodology. We handle all negotiations with site hosts, secure the required permits and manage all regulatory filings at the state and federal level.

Installation is typically completed within 48 hours of site confirmation. Following installation, our field operations team manages all cash collection, restocking, software updates and maintenance. You will never be required to interact with the machine directly at any stage.

Route-tested locations only

Every site is validated before commitment. If a location does not meet our placement standards, we do not install there.

Full compliance handled for you

State money transmitter licences, FinCEN registration, KYC and AML protocols are all managed by our compliance team.

99.2% network uptime

Proactive monitoring, scheduled maintenance and a rapid-response field team keep your machine earning around the clock.

Investor reviewing monthly passive income earnings on a mobile dashboard

Step 04 of 04

Earn passively every month

With your machine installed and fully operational, your only responsibility is to decide what to do with your monthly earnings.

By the fifth business day of each month, a detailed earnings report is published to your investor dashboard. This report shows gross machine revenue, the BTM Vendor management fee of 20%, and your net payout for the period.

Monthly payouts are transferred directly to your nominated bank account. Alternatively, you may elect to reinvest your earnings into an additional co-ownership stake, compounding your portfolio over time. Our multi-machine portfolio programme is available for investors seeking to scale beyond a single machine.

Monthly bank transfers

Net earnings are transferred to your nominated bank account by the 10th of each month, every month.

Transparent monthly reporting

Line-by-line earnings breakdowns are available in your dashboard. No ambiguous figures, no hidden deductions.

Reinvestment option

Compound your returns by reinvesting monthly payouts into additional ownership stakes across the network.

The Numbers

How your earnings are calculated

Our fee structure is straightforward and fully disclosed before you invest. We charge a 20% monthly management fee on total machine revenue. Everything above that goes directly to you.

The example below is based on a full-ownership machine in a verified premium location. Actual revenue will vary by location and transaction volume, but our route-testing process ensures no machine is placed unless it can generate at least $8,000 in gross monthly revenue.

Co-ownership investors receive a proportional share of the net earnings from their assigned machine, distributed in line with their ownership percentage.

Questions about the process

If your question is not answered here, our investor relations team is available to help within one business day.

From account registration to a live, operational machine typically takes between five and seven business days. Account verification and investment confirmation usually complete within the first three days. Site preparation and installation are typically completed within 48 hours of site confirmation.

Your first payout covers the first full calendar month in which your machine is operational. The earnings report is published to your dashboard by the fifth business day of the following month, and the bank transfer is completed by the tenth. If your machine goes live mid-month, your first payout will reflect a prorated amount for the days your machine was active.

No. Once your machine is installed and operational, BTM Vendor manages every aspect of its operation on your behalf. This includes cash collection and restocking, software updates, compliance filings, customer support, maintenance and reporting. You are required only to review your monthly earnings report and confirm your payout bank details remain current.

Our network monitoring system operates around the clock and detects anomalies in real time. When an issue is identified, a field technician is dispatched to the location, typically within four hours. For extended outages, we provide investors with a downtime credit in their next monthly report. Our network-wide uptime rate is 99.2%.

ou may sell your ownership stake, whether as a full owner or a co-owner. Your stake will be listed on our resale market, and upon sale, your capital will be refunded in full within 90 days. In the event that a buyer is not found within this timeframe, we will repurchase the stake from you directly. Please note that the maximum waiting period of 90 days is specified in your Bitcoin ATM agreement, ensuring a clear and secure exit process.

Full ownership investors are asked to commit to a minimum 24-month operating period to allow the machine to reach its full earnings potential and to recover installation and setup costs. Co-ownership investors have a minimum holding period of 12 months. These terms are set out clearly in the investor agreement before any funds are committed.
