Greetings! This morning, after much anticipation, BitInstant has launched in two new countries, and now enables cash deposits at over 700,000 locations in USA, Brazil, and Russia (with Canada arriving in a couple weeks as well). Previously, cash deposits were only accepted at the four big banks here in the us (Chase, CitiBank, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America). Now, in addition to the banks, you can make a cash deposit at the following locations: USAWalmart CVS 7-Eleven MoneyGram Thousands more local convenience, retail, & drug stores and money service locations BrazilBoleto Bancário (Boleto) [These can be paid at ATM's, bank branches, post offices, lottery agents, and some supermarkets and drug stores as well as via online banking!] RussiaQiwi Network Cyberplat Network [Both networks contain thousands of cash kiosks popular throughout Russia] USA and Russia locations enable you to be credited within about an hour, and Brazil requires about 24 hours. The Brazilian Boleto system can be paid with the cash deposits or via Internet Banking . In total, this now adds over 700,000 cash deposit locations in addition to the major banks where people in these countries can buy Bitcoins with cash. Canada will be added within weeks, and other countries will follow. We've been extremely excited about this new deal for months, and we're thrilled to be able to finally share it with you all! All deposits have a standard lower rate of 3.99% all around. Visit BitInstant.com and give it a try! Always a pleasure serving you! Thanks, The Team at Bitinstant Support@bitinstant.com1.716.712.4846 |

Amazing but I tried and got ... Sorry, but this merchant is not ready to accept cash at this time. Please try again later. I don't even really need to deposit any cash but I was going to try making a deposit at 7-11 on my lunch break just to try it out. I mean this could bust bitcoin access & adoption wide open. |

Simple! Same way a US Bank cash deposit works. Head over to the site, it will generate a deposit slip for you and just hand it into the teller at 7-11. Your good to go |

I had the same problem at first, then realized I was on the how it works page instead of the main page. |

You chose 'Major Bank Branch' which is TC locations. You need to choose one of the other locations on our homepage |

Hi,
1- If I choose Brazil I think the field (amount to send) should be real currency and not dollar.
2- "You receive" on first page should include the 1 dollar fee that appear on the next pages.

This looks great! 7-11 shows up as "Eleven" though.
