How Bitcoin POP works

Buying Bitcoin with cash starts at the point of payment

Bitcoin POP stands for point of payment. Instead of buying Bitcoin directly from a retail location, the Bitcoin POP process uses a barcode-based cash-loading system connected to your Crypto Dispensers account.

The process begins inside your Crypto Dispensers account where the barcode is generated. That barcode is then used at a participating checkout location through Green Dot to add cash to your account balance. After the balance is funded, you can use it to buy Bitcoin through Crypto Dispensers. If you want the broader nearby cash-loading guide, visit Buy Bitcoin with Cash Near You.

Why people use Bitcoin POP

Bitcoin POP gives people a way to load cash locally before buying Bitcoin.

Some people prefer handling the funding side of the process with physical cash at a nearby checkout location instead of using a debit card, credit card, or connected online payment route.

Bitcoin POP was built around the point of payment cash-loading process. Instead of buying Bitcoin directly at a register, the system lets users load cash into their Crypto Dispensers wallet balance first, then use that balance to buy Bitcoin separately through Crypto Dispensers.

Why this route exists Point of payment flexibility

Cash-first funding

Bitcoin POP gives users a way to fund their Crypto Dispensers wallet balance with physical cash at participating checkout locations.

Local checkout access

Participating retailers across thousands of locations nationwide make it possible to load cash near where you already shop.

Separate from the Bitcoin purchase

The retail point of payment handles the Green Dot cash-loading transaction. The Bitcoin purchase happens later through Crypto Dispensers.

Balance-based purchase flow

After your balance is credited, you decide when to use the Crypto Dispensers wallet balance to buy Bitcoin and where to send it.

Bitcoin POP overview Bitcoin POP stands for point of payment — a barcode-based cash-loading process that lets users add cash locally before using their credited Crypto Dispensers balance to buy Bitcoin separately.

Bitcoin POP® explained

From cash at the register to
funds in your Crypto Dispensers account

Bitcoin POP® cash loading gives customers a way to add cash to their Crypto Dispensers account through participating retail checkout locations. Instead of using a standalone machine, customers generate a barcode in their account, bring it to the register, hand cash to the cashier, and keep the receipt as proof of the transaction.

The retail cash-loading service is provided by Green Dot®. Green Dot does not facilitate, provide, exchange, sell, custody, or participate in cryptocurrency transactions. Cryptocurrency services are provided separately by Crypto Dispensers and its partners.

The process is designed for people who prefer using cash, earn cash, or want a familiar checkout experience. A barcode is generated from the customer’s Crypto Dispensers account and used at a participating retail location. The cashier scans the barcode, accepts the cash, and completes the retail cash-loading transaction at checkout.

Unlike Bitcoin ATM models, Bitcoin POP® cash loading does not depend on a dedicated kiosk for the cash-loading step. The experience happens at participating retail registers, using a cashier-assisted flow and a receipt-based confirmation. Availability varies by location, and retail service fees, limits, and verification requirements may apply.

After the retail cash-loading transaction is completed, funds are typically available in the customer’s Crypto Dispensers account within 15 minutes. The customer can then manage their account through Crypto Dispensers. Any cryptocurrency-related services are separate from the retail cash-loading service.

Retail service fee up to $4.95 and limits may apply. Funds are typically available within 15 minutes. Keep your receipt as proof of your transaction. Service provided by Green Dot®. ©2026 Green Dot Corporation. All rights reserved. Green Dot Corporation NMLS #914924; Green Dot Bank NMLS #908739.
