Why Dispensaries Need Hybrid Payments Now. Cashless ATM + Scan & Pay by Catherine M. Zito, CEO of Cannabis Business Solutions.
At Cannabis Business Solutions, we have always supported cannabis and hemp businesses. From startups to MSOs. But my role goes beyond payments. I watch behavior. I look for patterns. I ask what is changing before it becomes obvious . Right now, we are in the middle of a major shift . And most people are not talking about it yet. For years, cannabis payments were built around what felt familiar. Debit cards. ATM-style transactions. It made sense. That is how customers were trained to pay. But behavior has changed . And it changed quickly. Today, customers reach for their phone first. Not their wallet. They scan. They tap. They send money instantly. This is now normal. This is Cardless (Pay-by-Bank via QR Scan) Used like Apple Pay, Venmo, Cash app.. . Globally, over 2.2 billion people use QR codes. In the U.S., 91% of Gen Z (ages 18–28) and Millennials (ages 29–44) use Cardless payment apps. Your next customer already expects this experience. They trust it. They understand it. They prefer it. This is the part dispensary owners need to focus on. Technology does not drive change. Behavior does. And behavior has already shifted. In cannabis, many stores still rely on systems tied to card networks. Systems that were never truly designed for this industry. They work. Until they don’t. That creates real risk: Compliance exposure Operational friction Poor customer experience At the same time, cashless ATM is still widely used and familiar and many dispensaries rely on it every day . At Cannabis Business Solutions, we support both. We keep your current debit solution running while helping you add more stable payment options alongside it . So the better question is: What will still work 12–24 months from now? What I see is clear. We are moving toward direct bank payments. A customer scans a QR code . Connects their bank. Pays the exact amount. Done. No rounding. No cash handling. No ATM maintenance or downtime. No dependency on card networks. No shutdowns. This is not a trend. It is the next standard. For Dispensary Owners: What To Do Next If you are running a dispensary, you do not need to change overnight. But you do need a plan. The smartest operators right now are: Continuing cashless ATM for today, while adding Cardless for long-term stability Training staff to guide customers to the better option Reducing reliance on unstable payment rails Let’s Map This For Your Store If you want to see how this would work inside your dispensary, we can walk you through it.
