Mid-sized California Route with professional operations in place
There is a pretty big jump between buying a small starter ATM portfolio and committing close to $2 million to a larger acquisition.
This opportunity sits comfortably in the middle.
With an asking price of approximately $979,000 and annual Cashflow of around $310,000, it offers a buyer meaningful existing income without requiring the capital commitment of one of the larger portfolios currently on the market.
The business is already operating across active California merchant locations. The machines are in place, transaction activity already exists, and the operating structure behind the portfolio is established.
The buyer is also not taking on a route they will need to personally manage.
Loading, servicing, maintenance coordination, vendor relationships, reporting, and routine field operations remain within the professional management structure after closing. Ownership is focused on reviewing the numbers, monitoring performance, and making decisions around the investment.
That makes this a good middle-ground acquisition for someone who likes the ATM model, wants more income and scale than a smaller entry-level portfolio can provide, but is not looking to deploy $1.5M–$2M into their first or next purchase.
It can also make sense for an existing investor who wants to add another income-producing portfolio without taking on a large multi-state operation.
The California footprint gives the business access to a broad commercial market while the existing management structure keeps the operating side centralized.
The portfolio is already producing at its current level, so future expansion is not required to make the existing economics work.
There may still be opportunities to grow through additional merchant placements, complementary portfolio acquisitions, selected machine upgrades, and improvements at individual locations. Any future expansion would be additional to the current business.
For the right buyer, this is a way to move beyond the starter level without making the leap into one of the largest ATM acquisitions available.

About the Business
- Facilities & Assets
- The acquisition includes an operating California ATM portfolio with active merchant locations, installed equipment, existing transaction history, reporting systems, merchant relationships, and the professional infrastructure supporting the business.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The ATM market ranges from very small owner-operated routes to large regional portfolios.
This opportunity falls between those two ends of the market. It provides more immediate scale than a small route without requiring the capital commitment of a much larger acquisition.
The portfolio is already operating, so the buyer is acquiring current infrastructure and financial performance rather than building locations one at a time. - Opportunities for Growth
- The business can continue at its current size or potentially grow through additional locations and complementary acquisitions that fit within the existing professional management structure.
Selected equipment upgrades and individual location-performance reviews may also provide opportunities for incremental improvement.
