Amazon Cash allows customers to add funds at Coinstar kiosks

May 15, 2018

Amazon Cash users can now add cash to their account balance at selected Coinstar kiosks. There are no fees for adding cash, Coinstar said on its website. The service is already available at some Coinstar kiosks and the rollout will continue for the coming weeks.

Amazon Cash allows customers to shop Amazon.com without a credit or debit card.

To add funds to Amazon Cash, users select "cash services" on the Coinstar home screen, then enter the phone number associated with their Amazon account. They can then insert between $5 and $500 worth of bills in the cash acceptor. The money is immediately added to the user's Amazon Cash balance.

Users of the service can also add to their balance by providing their mobile phone number to a cashier or have a cashier scan their barcode, according to the Amazon website.
