Coimama is the WORST experience I ever had. It works only a Mastercard, the other two cards (Visa and Mastercard) stopped to be useful without explanation.
I asked why, they replied me : "for security reasons we cannot tell it to you". WTF?? Are you serious or a bunch of clowns? You blocked my card without any explanation??
And today, after over 48 hours my order was suspended, they wirte to me what follows:
"I'm afraid our verification team did not verify your account for further purchases. This means that, if you wish to continue buying digital currency you need to try another service, as, unfortunately, you won't be able to do it through Coinmama.
We cannot revise the decision, but for what it’s worth, if you are indeed unaware of what could have caused this, I apologize for the inconvenience. I hope you’ll find another service that can better serve you.
Regarding your last order, We've canceled your order and asked our processor to issue a full refund. Depending on your bank, you should see the refunded transaction within 2 to 3 business days."
Are you serious???
These guys are definetely NOT reliable, I will move on somenone else less ridiculous and more professional.
BTW, just for the sake of this post: we are talking of very very small transactions.

I agree, but unfortunately I actually live in a place where there are no ATMs.

For the atm do you need to create some kind of account? Or do you just need a wallet like Blockchain. The ATM you must insert cash correct?
Thank you

At the Bitcoin ATM all you need is your ID, phone, and the receivers Bitcoin address which you use an app to make it into a QR code before hand.
You literally walk up to the ATM and select add money, if it asks if it’s your account just select yes. You will then enter your phone number and they send you a numerical code so you can proceed. You then scan your ID, scan the QR code and start feeding the machine cash.
Ok now here is the catch and I have yet to figure this out, the machine does not, or I haven’t seen it, offer the fee. So not only is the exchange rate a issue you need to make sure you either find out the ATM fee or I would tack on an extra few dollars.
I would love to hear someone else’s take on this because both of my experiences were not good. I ended up loosing money.

Thank you very much for this explanation! So my blockchain wallet should have the QR code to scan I’m guessing. I watch a few you-tubes on the types of ATM around me. It looks somewhat simple but like you said the fees are probably hidden if there are any at all. I’m sure there’s some fee so bring a little extra cash I suppose.

Yes, if your wallet website/app does not have a QR code, you can easily generate one by copying your address into a QR code generator. As for the fees, they usually are baked into the spread. Running a crypto ATM is hella profitable as you can markup your inventory by 5-15% from what the prevailing exchanges are at and the second someone buys from your inventory, you replenish on the exchanges.

I used a Bitcoin ATM for the first time last night (I'm a noob). I had to enter my phone number, got a code, fired up my Blockchain wallet and clicked on "request". That opened a QR code that the ATM scanned.
The fees, for $20, was 12% + $3 for transactions $20-$99. I was just testing it out so I think I got something like $14.65 in Bitcoin.

Everythine I used any card on an international coin site it will be blocked the first time.
If card used allows crypto purchases (they all don't) I will then call the card CS up after denial and they approve. Or I call the card CS 1st to alert them that an international purchase is forthcoming
