A Rob Run ATM only withdraws money from your Bank Account. You cannot deposit cash at it. To bank cash, open an account at Looty Bay Bank and launder the cash first. During the ATM Event, one ATM is marked on your screen. Pick Break instead of Withdraw Cash to steal the cash inside.

How to Rob the ATM Event in Rob Run
The ATM Event is a timed robbery that runs separately from banking. Every player nearby can go after the same cash. The regular ATM and its Withdraw Cash option are covered later in this guide.
How to Tell the ATM Event Is Live
The event starts with a banner that reads Event Start: Tip-Off. A blue ATM marker appears in the world, and the objective box tells you what to do: Steal the batch of cash from the ATM before someone else does. A timer sits next to the objective and counts down, so move fast. The marker leads you to the target ATM.
Several machines can stand side by side. Use the one with the cash icon above it.
Break or Withdraw Cash: Which One to Pick
The event ATM menu has two options, Break and Withdraw Cash. Pick Break. A Searching… bar appears while the ATM opens. Withdraw Cash is the normal banking option, so skip it during the event.
Steps to Rob the ATM
- Watch for the Event Start: Tip-Off banner and the blue ATM marker.
- Follow the marker to the target ATM.
- Walk up to the ATM with the cash icon above it and press E.
- Pick Break.
- Stay at the ATM while the Searching… bar runs.
- Collect the cash from the opened ATM.
- Leave the area and head for your base.
What Makes the ATM Event Risky
The objective warns you that another player wants the same cash. Expect gunfire near the ATM. Police and full squads can also stop a solo player on the way out.
Cash in your bag can be stolen or confiscated. The fight does not end at the ATM.
How Much Does the Rob Run ATM Event Pay?
The ATM Event can pay six figures, but no fixed payout is confirmed. What you keep depends on how much cash you collect and whether you get away.
Each cash stack holds up to $25,000. A big haul fills several slots, so free up bag space before you reach the ATM.
Stealing cash from an ATM does not protect it. You still need to launder it.
What to Do if the Rob Run ATM Won’t Open
Some players report that the event ATM will not open for them while their teammates open it with no trouble. No fix is confirmed yet.
First, check that the event is still running and that you are at the marked ATM. Then pick Break, not Withdraw Cash. If the ATM still stays shut, you may have hit a bug. Rob Run is in Early Access.
How to Withdraw Money From a Rob Run ATM
You can withdraw cash at any ATM once you have banked it. Pick Withdraw Cash in the menu. Banking takes a few steps, so set it up first. Our Rob Run money guide covers selling loot and banking in more detail. The bank vault is a separate thing and you can also rob the bank.
What You Need Before You Can Withdraw
- Visit Looty Bay Bank as a Civilian. Do not wear a mask.
- Talk to the Bank Employee, choose Open Account, and confirm. It costs $5,000.
- Go to the Laundering Desk at your base.
- Open the Laundering tab, double-click your cash to move it in, and press Start Laundering.
- When it finishes, click Transfer to My Account. The money lands in your Bank Account.
- Walk up to any ATM and pick Withdraw Cash.
You do not need a base to launder cash. Before you own a property, Lenny at Lenny’s Motel can launder it for you. He takes a cut, so you get back less than you put in.
Can You Deposit Cash at an ATM?
In Rob Run, you bank cash by laundering it, not by using the ATM. The ATM only takes money out.
Where to Find ATMs in Looty Bay
The Looty Bay city map lists 13 ATMs. Any of them works for withdrawals.
| District | ATMs |
|---|---|

| Sunny Beach | 5 |
| Palm Side | 2 |
| Loraine Hills | 0 |
The event ATM is marked on your screen when the event starts, so you do not need the map to find it.
Is Cash From a Rob Run ATM Safe?
Banked money is safe from theft. Cash you withdraw is not. Once it is in your pocket, it can be stolen or confiscated, so I’d only withdraw what you plan to spend.
ATM Event cash carries the same risk, so launder it as soon as you can. Other players can raid your base, so do not leave cash sitting there either.
Your Bank Account resets at the wipe. The wipe, called the Federal Raid, currently happens every 7 days on each server. It resets cash too, including banked money. Our Rob Run wipe guide lists what else resets.
Lenny’s Motel also has a Cash Stash for storing cash. It is separate from your Bank Account, and its space is limited.
