Virtual currency kiosks face new rules

Beginning July 1, 2026, Mississippi kiosk operators must get a money-transmission license and pay required fees. They cannot use signs that make a kiosk seem like a bank or ATM, unless a banking entity uses the sign. The commissioner can order a noncompliant kiosk disabled or removed at the operator’s expense, or suspend or revoke its license. These rules add consumer safeguards but can raise operators’ costs and limit kiosk access.
