Is It Permissible to Own an ATM Machine?

Answered by Ustadh Salman Younas

Question: Is the business of having an atm machine permitted? I own a few atms and these machines give money from their account for a 1 dollar surcharge fee.   

Answer: assalamu `alaykum

Yes, this is perfectly permissible. You are merely charging a service fee for the use of your ATM.
