Frequently asked questions

You can set your own commission for each type of exchange (e.g. 5% for BTC sell) depending on your local market situation. Most shops set the fee to around 6% which includes a smaller LoCoins fee. Your earnings depend on the exact amount of all exchange orders processed in your shop(s). In our experience this can mean anything from under a thousand to tens of thousand for retailers who invest time and effort into local brand awareness.

There is zero cost to set up and run the service. The only thing you need to handle a LoCoins customer is a smartphone, tablet or computer device with an internet connection. Usually our shops will simply use the device they already use for every day work. We can also integrate to your POS/cashier system.

We leave this decision to you. Min/Max amount can be set for each shop and type of exchange.

It is desired that you have a basic understanding of cryptocurrencies (e.g. knowing what a crypto wallets is). Individual cashiers/employees can operate very independently though as there are only two simple steps required to process an exchange order. We also provide information, support and access to a test system to ensure you are best prepared.

This type of intermediary service is legal and doesn’t require a specific license in most countries. LoCoins has been built by the creators of a successful bitcoin ATM operator and regional cryptocurrency promoter Bitnik and has existing locations currently operating in multiple EU countries. The solution is fully compliant with AML and other relevant regulations and we are working closely with the regulators on a continuous basis as the industry evolves.

Same reason as why customers are using exchange bureaux offices instead of going directly to Forex sites to exchange traditional currencies, like EUR to USD. As cryptocurrencies are gaining wider awareness more people are looking for a convenient way to exchange coins and cash, quickly and securely.

Pretty much any type of shop is suitable regardless of size or type of business, as long as it is operating with cash (although other payments methods are supported too), has a permanent location and somewhat stable opening hours.
