How do you get cash after setting up an account?

Best thing to do is take your card to a BottleDrop Plus store like Fred Meyer, Albertsons, the Kiva, etc., and get a cash voucher and spend it in that store, because they add 20%. They are not supposed to make change if you buy less than the amount on your voucher, but I've had cashiers give me cash change, and someone told me they take the voucher to customer service and cash the whole thing in.

There are kiosk type machines that read the slip the bottle/can counter gives you. It gives you exactly the amount, in cash, on the spot after you set up your account.
