Use cards at automated teller machines (ATMs)

Learn how you can use your Stripe Issuing cards at ATMs.

Copy page

You can use your US-issued cards for ATM cash withdrawals if you enable the feature for your Stripe account, and set up valid PINs for your cards.

Enable ATM withdrawals

ATM withdrawals aren’t enabled by default, so you need to request approval for your use case through support. In addition, make sure all your relevant cards have PINs set up by following our PIN management guide.

Treatment of ATM transactions

Stripe Issuing treats ATM withdrawals as standard transactions, but a few characteristics of the authorization signal that it’s an ATM withdrawal:

  • The merchant category code is set to 6011—Automated Cash Disburse.
  • An ATM fee value might be present.
  • The PIN check is a match.

You can approve or decline them using the same webhook integration as other authorizations.

Restrictions

  • Limits: ATM withdrawals are subject to a daily maximum limit. Your support representative can share your limit with you and work to increase it if it’s not sufficient for your use case.
  • Cash deposits: Stripe-issued cards aren’t enrolled in any ATM cash deposit programs and don’t have the ability to accept cash deposits. Cash deposit-enabled ATMs won’t trigger prompts for deposits when a Stripe-issued card is used.
  • Region availability: ATM withdrawals aren’t supported for cards issued in the UK or EU. Contact support for information about future availability in these regions.

Fees

Stripe does not assess any fees of its own for ATM withdrawals, but ATM operators often do. These fees are generally:

  • ATM use surcharge: Added to the total transaction amount (this is the atm fee amount a cardholder sees at the ATM.)

  • Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC): When the cardholder is given the option between a local currency and the card’s default currency (for example, using a US issued card in the EU), ATMs generally apply a markup on conversion rates when a cardholder picks the card’s default currency. While this isn’t an explicit fee, the conversion rates functionally behave as a tax on ATM transactions.

Neither the ATM provider nor Stripe apply any cash advance fees or annual percentage rate (APR) to an ATM withdrawal.

Different markets have different ATM rules and fee structures that influence the frequency and intensity of the fees charged, but the way we describe the fees above generally applies regardless of the country. If an ATM charges a fee to a cardholder, we’ll pass it on as part of the amount for a given authorization. Otherwise, cardholders and issuing users won’t see any impact.
