Federal Boulevard is Denver's spine for this kind of retail — a long commercial arterial of mercados, taquerías, check cashers and phone shops serving the city's Mexican and Central American population.
Aurora adds a second and very different layer: one of the more internationally diverse suburbs in the Mountain West, with East African, Afghan, Burmese and Nepali communities and their own retail strips along Colfax and Havana.
On the ground
Mercados, check cashers, money transfer agencies, international grocery stores, convenience stores, phone shops. These are the formats the program was designed around, and the neighbourhoods below are where they cluster.

Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Nepal, Afghanistan — the corridors that drive stablecoin demand at a Denver counter.
Spanish, English, Amharic, Nepali, Arabic. Serving a customer in their own language is the single biggest advantage a counter has over an app.
The arithmetic
Crypto is priced as a percentage of the order, so the revenue scales with the ticket rather than with the number of items you sold. These are worked examples at an illustrative 1% to 3% revenue share — check your agent agreement for your own rate.
| At the counter | Order size | Store keeps (low) | Store keeps (high) |
|---|---|---|---|
| A customer cashes a check and puts part of it into Bitcoin | $200 | $2.00 | $6.00 |
| A regular buys USDT to send to family overseas | $500 | $5.00 | $15.00 |
| A customer sells crypto and takes the cash | $1,000 | $10.00 | $30.00 |
| A small business owner buys on payday, every other week | $2,500 | $25.00 | $75.00 |
| One larger order, the kind an ATM's daily cap refuses | $10,000 | $100.00 | $300.00 |
The figures above are worked examples, not projected or guaranteed earnings. They show how the arithmetic works on a given order size at an illustrative revenue-share range. Your actual rate is set in your agent agreement, and what any individual store earns depends on its foot traffic, its neighbourhood, its hours and how many customers it serves. Anytime Capital does not promise any level of income.

Federal Boulevard and Havana Street are ten miles and a world apart. The first is a long-settled Mexican and Central American commercial strip; the second is a recently arrived, highly multi-national one with resettlement-driven communities.
Store owners on the second tend to find crypto demand arrives faster, because recently arrived households have more immediate and more frequent remittance needs.
Both are under-served. Colorado has seen relatively little attention from crypto retail operators compared with the coastal and southern markets.
Your employee signs in at retail.anytime-capital.com, verifies the customer once, places the order and takes the payment at the counter. There is no machine to install, no crypto for the store to hold and no float to fund.
Anytime Capital is the registered money services business behind the transaction and carries the customer identification programme, the monitoring and the reporting. Your store is a serving location, and your existing licences remain yours with their own obligations.
Onboarding is a compliance review and a training session. Nothing is delivered to your address, and there is nothing to earn back before the first order is profitable.

Less worked than the coastal and southern markets, which is mostly an advantage. Availability at your specific location is confirmed during onboarding.
Both. Federal serves a long-settled Mexican and Central American population; Aurora's Havana and Colfax strips serve newer, more multi-national communities with more immediate remittance needs.
Not to act as a serving location for Anytime Capital's platform. Anytime Capital is the registered money services business and carries the compliance programme for the activity. State law varies, so what applies to your specific store is confirmed during onboarding, and nothing here is legal advice.
None. The platform runs in a browser on a phone, tablet or the PC already behind your counter. There is no kiosk, no floor space requirement and no monthly platform fee.
One to two minutes for a first-time customer, because their identity is verified once. Under a minute for everyone after that.
