Have your ATM stand out from the competition with our new value-added services! You now have the ability to sell gift cards, cellular minutes, and bitcoin at your ATM with no cost!

ATMs are becoming more than simply machines that dispense cash, and, at Premier, we’re making sure you can be on the front line of this breaking technology. Better yet, these programs make you money, and have zero cost!

Let’s start with GivePay, which allows you to sell gift cards and cellular minutes through the ATM. Based in Fort Worth, Texas, GivePay Commerce is a FinTech that offers innovative ATM and POS payments solutions. The GivePay Gift Card Mall introduces new ways to give a gift or pay for wireless via retail ATMs instantly.

Merchants with GivePay on their ATM(s), make between $1-$1.50 per gift card purchase depending on the type of card purchased and dollar amount loaded to the card. This money is paid to the merchant once a month on the 15th day of the following month.

Here’s a brief tutorial of what happens when someone purchases a gift card at the ATM, or you can click here to watch a video of a gift card transaction.

  1. Customer may choose to Give a Gift or Pay for Wireless. If they elect to give a gift, they’re presented with categories and cards to help them easily find the perfect gift.
  2. After choosing a gift card, customers can add an animated greeting. This helps personalize the gift and adds a little fun to the message.
  3. Enter the recipient’s phone number. Customers will be asked for the recipient’s number as well as their own.
  4. After transaction approval, customers will receive a confirmation text notifying that their gift card was delivered.
  5. GivePay utilizes best practices and industry standards to comply with applicable TCPA rules and regulations. After choosing a gift card, an amount, and an optional animated greeting, the final total is displayed for confirmation. This includes all totals, fees, offers, and the ability to view terms and conditions.
  6. Customer security is a top priority. In addition to pin validation, zip code verification is a requirement to complete each sale. GivePay enforces TLS 1.2 encryption throughout the transaction flow process. GivePay operates a PCI DSS compliant platform, and card numbers are never stored.
  7. Gift Cards are sent in text messages from updated ATMs via the GivePay platform in real-time. Customers can send a funny happy birthday video and gift card to friends or family across the country for use that same day. Tap the GivePay text to view and redeem instantly or save for later. Some cards can be saved to Apple Pay or Google Pay wallet for future use.

ATMs must be processing over the internet to offer GivePay, and have a mainboard with enough memory to operate the program. To find out if your ATM can do GivePay, give our office a call at 855-764-2867 or email sales@pmgcom.com.

We have also partnered with LibertyX to allow merchants to sell bitcoin at the ATM. LibertyX is America’s largest network of bitcoin ATMs, cashiers, and kiosks. Merchants make 1% of the total purchase on each bitcoin transaction.
