    1. Depends on the company’s ATM. I know for some of the ones at Costco in the US, you have to have an account (with KYC) with a certain company to transact.

    2. many people visit atms that only require sms verification(free sms sites exist) for smaller amounts in this list – https://coinatmradar.com/

      click on the details of the atms near you to get specifics or contact the company before visiting

      Atms are usually 5-30% more expensive so be careful! Some will hide this fee in the spread so pay attention to the real market price.

      Other options that don’t require verification like this list –

      If using a DEX like bisq or robosats you will need to have a small amount of btc to get started though

      You need to use your ID card. Why use an ATM? The fees are very high and it is totally unnecessary
