Coinstar 推出 9,500 个自助服务终端，通过新的数字钱包重新定义金融访问

自助金融服务亭的领导者 Coinstar 周二宣布推出 CINQ by Coinstar，这是一款与 Coinstar 合作开发的数字钱包

Coinstar, the company behind those coin-counting kiosks you see at grocery stores, is expanding its digital wallet offering with a new partnership.

Coinstar 是您在杂货店看到的硬币计数亭背后的公司，正在通过新的合作伙伴关系扩展其数字钱包产品。

The digital wallet, called CINQ by Coinstar, was launched in August 2023. It allows users to buy cryptocurrency and stablecoins with cash at over 9,500 Coinstar kiosks across the U.S., or through the CINQ by Coinstar mobile app.

这款数字钱包名为 CINQ by Coinstar，于 2023 年 8 月推出。它允许用户在美国超过 9,500 个 Coinstar 售货亭或通过 CINQ by Coinstar 移动应用程序用现金购买加密货币和稳定币。

Coinstar is also planning to expand the wallet’s services in 2025 to enhance financial access for underbanked Americans and make remittances more affordable, especially for immigrants who often rely on cash-based transfers.

Coinstar 还计划在 2025 年扩大钱包服务，以改善银行服务不足的美国人的金融服务，并使汇款更加便宜，特别是对于经常依赖现金转账的移民而言。

“Through a partnership with Zero Hash, CINQ by Coinstar has launched with the initial ability to purchase cryptocurrency and stablecoins with cash at more than 9,500 Coinstar kiosks across the U.S., or through the CINQ by Coinstar mobile app,” the announcement states.

这一消息发布之际，多家公司正在寻求扩大美国消费者对加密货币和稳定币交易的访问范围。去年 12 月，MoneyGram 宣布与 Stellar Development Foundation 建立合作伙伴关系，为稳定币交易提供近乎即时且低成本的结算。
