Built for cash users who need speed

For people who want Bitcoin without waiting on slow bank rails.

Adding cash at CVS® gives cash-dependent users a familiar way to fund their Crypto Dispensers account. Generate a barcode, add cash at a participating checkout, keep your receipt, then use your funded balance to buy Bitcoin after required account steps are complete.

People who want Bitcoin the same day

For users who do not want to wait days for ACH settlement or exchange review. Add cash at a participating CVS® checkout, then use your funded account to buy Bitcoin after funds are available.

Bitcoin ATM users tired of high fees

Bitcoin ATMs can feel expensive, unclear, and unpredictable. This flow gives cash users a register-first alternative with a receipt, account funding, and a separate Bitcoin purchase step.

Users blocked by cards or banks

Debit, credit, and ACH transactions can be declined, limited, treated as cash advances, or flagged as high risk. Adding cash gives users another way to fund their account without relying only on card or bank approval.

Cash-dependent customers

For people who get paid in cash, budget in cash, or simply prefer using cash. You can add physical cash at a familiar CVS® checkout, then use your Crypto Dispensers balance to buy Bitcoin.

Online account funders

Some users need Bitcoin to fund online accounts where card or bank payments may be restricted, declined, delayed, or capped. This gives them a cash-first path to Bitcoin, subject to verification and transaction controls.

People who want control before sending

The retail checkout step funds your account. The Bitcoin purchase happens separately, giving you a chance to confirm your amount, wallet address, and transaction details before delivery.

Retail service fees, limits, timing, location availability, transaction review, and verification requirements may apply. Green Dot® provides the retail add-cash service and does not facilitate, provide, exchange, sell, custody, or participate in cryptocurrency transactions. CVS® does not sell Bitcoin.
