   I don't there is any ATM in Canada that offers coins.   
      
   But that is another thing.. eventually I run out of coins. Why     
   are people hoarding that stuff? My only option is/was to go to     
   the bank.  Now, in light of the recent "by appointment only"     
   imposition, I have another solution. But maybe I shouldn't     
   mention it - at least, not yet.

   Yes.. my main bank has the "take a pic with your smartphone" and     
   deposit it that way method.  But I don't have a current     
   smartphone that will support getting apps from the google-store.     
   I *could* however install the .APK direct, if I could get it.

   OMG.  What nonsense in their naming of things just to sound     
   different and get your attention.

   Yes.. I have a commercial terminal for that. It accepts     
   Mastercard, Visa, Debit, and ApplePay. People can also make a     
   payment online via PayPal or eTransfer too.   
      
   Never heard of the LetGo/Offerup alternatives. Maybe it's just a     
   USA offering.   
      
   They seem to be tied in with specific items for sale.  I would     
   need a simple alternative to just send cash.

   Another popular service is the Square.  It's a pretty good     
   solution for someone who needs portability.
