Answer: What is Coinstar, Inc. mean?

Coinstar, LLC (formerly Outerwall, Inc.) is an American company operating coin-cashing machines. On September 27, 2016, Apollo Global Management, LLC acquired Outerwall, Inc. for $52.00 per share in cash. After the acquisition, former components of Outerwall, Redbox, Coinstar, and ecoATM (which includes Gazelle) became separate business entities.

Coinstar's focus is the conversion of loose change into paper currency, donations, and gift cards via coin counter kiosks which deduct a fee for conversion of coins to banknotes; it processes $2.7 billion worth of coins annually as of 2019. The company also operates Coinstar Exchange for gift cards. Coinstar's kiosks are in the front of stores (between the cash registers and the exit/entrance). The company has more than 60,000 kiosks offering a variety of services in the US, UK, Ireland, Canada, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. Coinstar also produces machines that provide prepaid credit cards and e-payment kiosks.

On July 2, 2013, Coinstar, as Outerwall, started trading on the NASDAQ as OUTR, changing its name from Coinstar. As of 2016, it is now owned by Apollo Global Management.
