Unbank's Migration to BTCPay Server: A Case Study in Non-Custodial Bitcoin Exchange
2025-02-19
Founded in 2014, Unbank is one of the oldest and largest Bitcoin ATM networks in the US, boasting over 850 ATMs. Seeking to improve services, Unbank launched a mobile app in 2021 enabling faster Bitcoin buying and selling via cash, Venmo, PayPal, and debit cards. Frustrated with their previous provider's unreliability and high costs, Unbank migrated to BTCPay Server, a non-custodial solution prioritizing security and scalability. The seamless integration, robust features, and active community support allowed Unbank's small team to complete the migration in just three months. The result? Significantly reduced costs, improved stability, and processing of over 40,000 transactions totaling $40 million.
