Kiosks will combine everyday banking with secure Bitcoin purchases, expanding access to digital currency in trusted retail locations

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / September 30, 2025 / Athena Bitcoin Global (OTC PINK:ABIT) ("Athena" or the "Company"), the third largest global operator of Bitcoin kiosks and digital asset fintech solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with Cash Depot to integrate Athena's Bitcoin purchase software into Cash Depot's Bank in a Box kiosks.

This partnership will launch with select Bank in a Box kiosks, integrating Athena's Bitcoin purchase software alongside traditional ATM services in convenience stores and retail locations. Retailers hosting these kiosks can expect to benefit from increased traffic and added revenue opportunities as Bitcoin adoption grows.

"At Athena, we're committed to making Bitcoin more accessible through technology that prioritizes the customer experience and security," said Matias Goldenhörn, CEO of Athena Bitcoin Global. "Partnering with Cash Depot not only brings Bitcoin purchasing capabilities to kiosks people already trust for everyday financial transactions, but it also expands Athena's footprint into new retail locations, strengthening our ability to reach more customers where they are."

Bank in a Box is Cash Depot's all-in-one smart kiosk, combining ATM withdrawals, deposits, bill pay, and cash management services. Through this partnership, select kiosks in convenience stores and retail locations will now also enable secure, seamless Bitcoin purchases.

"Bank in a Box was designed to provide retailer hosts with a comprehensive financial services solution," said Sean Burke, CEO of Cash Depot. "By adding Athena Bitcoin's capabilities, we're enhancing that value by offering customers modern, convenient ways to access digital currency and providing the choice to buy Bitcoin alongside traditional banking services."

The service is now live, with both companies planning additional deployments as consumer demand for Bitcoin access continues to grow. Users can locate participating Bank in a Box kiosks via Athena Bitcoin's ATM locator or Cash Depot's website.
