How to Buy Bitcoin at an Austin Athena ATM

Choose Buy Bitcoin and verify your phone with the 6 digit code we send you. Enter the amount you want, tap Scan Wallet QR Code, and show the receive QR from your wallet app. Put your bills in one at a time, look over the summary, hit Finish and keep the receipt.

Have your phone and a wallet app ready, and bring cash. Larger amounts need valid ID, and you have to be 18 or older.

Open Late and Open Early

31 of our 44 Austin machines are open 24 hours, which covers the late shift and the early start. The rest keep store hours, and the listings above show today’s hours for each one.

More Than Bitcoin

Austin machines also handle remittances, gift cards and prepaid phone top ups with cash. The services for each kiosk are listed above.

Staying Safe

Imposter scams are on the rise. Someone calls saying they are the police, a jury duty clerk, a government office or the IRS, and tells you to settle a fine or a bond in Bitcoin that day. It is not real. No court, agency or police department takes payment at a Bitcoin ATM, and Athena will never call, text or email you asking for a wallet address or a payment.

If someone you have not met is telling you to buy Bitcoin, stop and call us at 312-690-4466 before you insert any cash. Bitcoin transactions cannot be reversed. You can read how these play out on our pages about police scams, government scams and IRS scams, or see every scam we track in the scam help center.
