A scrap-purchase transaction settled by dispensing cash from an on-site ATM-style machine instead of writing a check or printing a kiosk voucher.
## What is an ATM ticket? In a scrap or CRV operation, an **ATM ticket** is a transaction where the seller is paid via an on-site cash-dispensing machine immediately after the load is weighed and graded. The machine is loaded with cash by the operator and dispenses the exact payout amount printed on the ticket. ## Why operators use ATM payout - **No checks to print or sign.** - **Reduced theft exposure** — cash is locked in the machine, not in a drawer. - **Faster turnaround** for the seller line. - **Auto-reconciliation** — every dispense is logged against the ticket ID. ## Compliance & tax ATM payouts still trigger the same **1099-MISC / 1099-NEC thresholds** and the same state-required seller ID capture (driver license scan, thumbprint where required). ## How WeighPay handles ATM tickets WeighPay integrates with cash-dispense ATMs (CashAcceptors, Glory, NCR) — the scale ticket auto-triggers the dispense, the operator never handles cash, and every transaction is logged in the audit trail.
