Amplify your network with Retail Remote Transfer.

Zero capital investment. Zero heavy lifting. Zero regrets.

Retail Remote Transfer (RRT) is a pay-as-you-go program that allows your customers to transfer coins and cash directly into their checking account from any participating Coinstar kiosk.

Get Started

Join the next-generation coin ecosystem that helps you achieve your strategic goals.

Expand your reach, drive better results, enhance employee and customer experiences, enable greener operations, and alleviate the coin shortage. We’ve created a next-generation coin ecosystem that makes all of these outcomes possible with a single partnership and no up-front investment. It’s now easier than ever to tap into the transformative power of coin.

Join the Ecosystem

Expand your reach by meeting current and potential customers right where they shop every day.

Serve Untapped Markets

It’s now possible to tap into banking deserts and serve unbanked or underbanked individuals (which, according to Federal Reserve data, comprise 18% of the U.S. population). The Coinstar retail network allows your institution to reach these customers. You already know that banking deserts are challenging for the affected populations, and you can provide better support in these areas. In fact, according to Coinstar data, 66% of banking deserts are within 10 miles of a Coinstar kiosk!

Drive New Accounts

With a convenient option to transfer coins and cash into accounts, it’s easier for cash-preferred customers to participate in digital banking by opening new accounts for bill pay, kids’ savings, or any other purpose. By making it easier for these customers to engage with your products and services, you’ll be more likely to win their business when they are choosing a financial institution.

Increase account usage

There is an estimated $7.7 billion in coin lying around in American couch cushions, piggy banks, and car cupholders. RRT helps your customers get this latent coin into the accounts they hold with your organization—and they can do it from any swipe-enabled Coinstar kiosk in the country.

Maximize branch profitability

When it comes to future-proofing strategies, cross-selling may never go out of style. That’s because a greater share of wallet (SOW) has been historically proven to equate with greater customer loyalty in banking. RRT helps keep the teams in your branches focused on cross-selling and higher-value interactions by providing a convenient option for your customers to perform cash and coin exchange transactions.

Drive loyalty with enhanced customer experiences.

Boost customer convenience

Customer experience drives loyalty, and 76% of customers expect an omnichannel experience from their bank or credit union. Retail Remote Transfer helps your financial institution (FI) integrate with your customers’ lives by making it easy to convert their coin into spendable funds—whether they live 2 miles or 200 miles away from your nearest branch.

Support your small business customers

The coin shortage has hit small businesses hard, making it difficult for them to transact with their customers in the ways they normally would. In fact, even in today’s digital age, 55% of U.S. small businesses don’t accept credit cards! By participating in our network that gets coin moving, you can help encourage the next-generation coin ecosystem and make the coin shortage a thing of the past.

Augment in-branch coin services

If you already offer self-service coin counting in your branch with one of our fully managed programs and Anthony kiosks or by doing it yourself, Retail Remote Transfer can be a great way to bring a total coin solution to your institution, covering both onsite and offsite coin counting for your customers!

Help them focus on what they’re best at

Eliminate the common pain points of in-branch coin handling: lifting and carrying coin bags, counting and rolling coin, and preparing coin for pickup. Whether you use Coinstar for Financial outside your branch, inside your branch, or both, we take over the heavy lifting for your branch team members.

Tap Into Coin Automation

A circular coin ecosystem is better for the planet.

Recycle more coin

With millions of transactions each year, Coinstar activates latent coin and gets it moving in the economy—alleviating the coin shortage and reducing the need for new coin to be minted. According to our calculations, it costs 95% less to recycle coin than it does to mint new!

Reduce carbon emissions

Mining materials for new coin, transporting materials and coin, and manufacturing operations consume natural resources and energy. Recycling coin is an effective way to reduce your institution’s carbon footprint, contributing to your sustainability goals, which can positively impact your ESG results. Did you know that 86% of the copper mined for consumer products is used to make pennies? By recycling more coin, you can help us conserve natural resources and keep the environment cleaner.
