Alabama Dispensary ATMs & Payment Services

Call Now

Alabama is joining the ranks of legal medical marijuana states with the passage of the Alabama Medical Cannabis Act in 2021. While dispensaries are not yet operational, the framework for the state’s medical program is in place, and retail sales are expected to begin soon. At the same time, recreational marijuana remains illegal, and Alabama has not decriminalized cannabis possession, making compliance and regulation top priorities. Greenstar ATM helps licensed operators prepare for launch with secure, in-store ATMs and cannabis-compliant debit payment solutions, designed to support patient needs while meeting strict state guidelines.

Why Alabama Dispensaries Will Need On-Site ATMs

Once dispensaries open, cash will be the primary payment method, since federal laws prevent traditional credit or debit card processing for cannabis sales. Having an on-site ATM ensures patients can easily access funds, improving purchase flow, increasing average spend, and helping dispensaries stay compliant with strict financial regulations.

Greenstar ATM offers turnkey solutions, including:

  • Free ATM Placement – We handle installation, maintenance, and service at no cost to your business.

  • Flexible Lease & Purchase Options – Choose a setup that fits your dispensary’s long-term strategy.

  • 24/7 Support & Monitoring – Keep your ATM online, operational, and secure at all times.

  • Hardware Built for Medical Cannabis – Designed for high-volume, patient-focused environments.

Offer PIN Debit Payments When the Market Launches

For added flexibility, Greenstar ATM will help Alabama dispensaries implement PIN-based debit card processing once operations are live. Our systems are built for cannabis, giving patients a compliant, convenient way to pay—without relying solely on cash.

  • Speed Up Transactions – Reduce wait times and serve patients efficiently.

  • Increase Revenue – Patients tend to spend more when using cards.

  • Lower Cash Handling Risk – Minimize theft, loss, and internal accounting issues.

  • Fully Compliant Processing – Built for the Alabama medical cannabis program’s future framework.
