The profit you’ll see with atm machines varies. Location and foot traffic is the key to get the most profit.

As the moment we have 5 machines, but we still haven’t placed 1 yet.

Also, another thing that will dictate profit is the surcharge fee that you charge. Obviously, you want to keep it in line with what other atm’s charge in the area but certain locations can get away with charging more for a surcharge: like casinos, strip clubs, etc.

Now as far as our personal machines. Technically, there isn’t any profit yet as the current profit is paying off the 5 machines. However, 2 of our machines do so well each month that they’ll probably pay off all 5 machines themselves.

We make roughly $754/mo. right now, but that’s an average because in November it was over $800. Plus, depending on the month and what’s going on your profits will go up or down. But the average is $754 right now and that’s just with 4 machines in action. Once we get the other one placed, of course, the profit will go up.

Just with $754/mo. ALL 5 of our machines will be paid off in 12 to 13 months (and this includes the machines, the modems, shipping charges, delivery, etc.) So after that, it will all be 100% profit.

The average machine though, will probably be paid off within 3 yrs. We just lucked out by getting a strip club and a very active chinese restaurant.

Keep in mind that 2 of our machines we have a 50/50 partner (that’s how we learned the business) so those 2 machines actually make MORE money, but we only get 50% of the total.

Partnering is a good way to get started in the business so you can learn the business and get started with less out of pocket expenses.

Hope this helped.
