Free ATMs for restaurants and cafés.
From family taquerías to full-service dining rooms, cash still shows up at the table. An ATM near the host stand keeps it convenient for guests and better for your staff.
The case for cash
Why an ATM makes sense for a restaurant.
Restaurants live on thin margins and card fees eat into every ticket. Guests, meanwhile, still reach for cash when the check comes: to tip, to split a bill four ways, or because the counter runs cash-only at lunch. An ATM on site serves both sides of that equation.
BayTM places ATMs in restaurants, cafés, diners and fast-casual concepts across California. We deliver and install the machine, keep it loaded and service it 24/7 — for free.
How the full-service program works →Where cash shows up
Where cash comes up.
- I
Cash for tips
Guests who prefer to tip in cash can get it on site instead of apologizing or leaving to find an ATM.
- II
Splitting the check
Tables that want to split a bill in cash can do it without a trip down the block.
- III
Cash-only counters and specials
Lunch counters, takeout windows and daily specials often run cash-only to keep things simple. An ATM keeps that model working for every customer.
Placement
Where we’d put it
- Near the host stand or entrance, so guests can get cash on the way in or while waiting for a table.
- Out of the main traffic lane to the dining room and away from the kitchen pass.
- Visible from the register, which reassures guests and staff alike.
Operations
How we run it
- We match the cash load to your busiest services and monitor levels remotely.
- The machine is cleaned and inspected on a regular schedule, so it looks like it belongs in your dining room.
- No minimum volume — a quiet January costs you nothing.
Questions
Questions we hear from restaurants.
Does an ATM fit in a small restaurant?
Most placements need only a few square feet near the entrance and a standard outlet. We’ll recommend a machine size that fits your space during the location review.
Will an ATM change how guests pay?
It gives guests who prefer cash an easy way to get it. Some will pay or tip in cash; many will keep using cards. Either way, the choice stays with them.
