Failure to obtain the necessary money transmitter license could result in penalties for non-compliance. Regulated entities are advised to contact Angela Morris or Matt Mowdy for questions regarding digital asset kiosks and upcoming renewals, and Morgan Heard or Matt Mowdy for questions regarding advance change notices.
