Ally’s ATM Network: 43,000+ Fee-Free Machines

Ally Bank does not operate its own ATMs. Instead, it partners with the Allpoint network — the largest surcharge-free ATM network in the US with 43,000+ locations. Allpoint ATMs are found at:

  • Target — most locations nationwide
  • Walgreens and Duane Reade
  • CVS Pharmacy
  • Costco
  • Kroger, Safeway, and other major grocery chains
  • 7-Eleven and other convenience stores

Find the nearest Allpoint ATM using the Allpoint ATM locator or through the Ally mobile app’s ATM finder feature.


The $10/Month Out-of-Network ATM Reimbursement

For any ATM outside the Allpoint network, the ATM owner may charge a surcharge (typically $2–$4). Ally automatically reimburses up to $10 per month in these third-party fees:

  • The reimbursement is applied at the end of each billing cycle — you won’t see it instantly
  • Ally tracks out-of-network fees automatically — no claim or request required
  • $10 covers approximately 3–4 out-of-network withdrawals per month at average surcharge rates
  • Customers who regularly exceed $10/month in ATM surcharges can request a temporary limit increase by phone

Example: You withdraw cash at a non-Allpoint ATM that charges a $3.50 surcharge. You do this 3 times in a month ($10.50 total). Ally reimburses $10 of that — you pay $0.50 out of pocket.


How Ally’s ATM Limit Compares

Bank Daily ATM Limit Free ATMs Out-of-Network Reimbursement
Ally $1,000 43,000+ Allpoint Up to $10/month
Chase $500–$3,000 16,000+ proprietary None
Bank of America $1,000–$2,500 15,000+ proprietary None
Capital One $1,000 70,000+ (Allpoint + MoneyPass) None
SoFi $1,000 55,000+ (Allpoint + STAR) None

Ally’s $1,000 daily limit is on par with Capital One and SoFi, and higher than Chase’s standard $500 limit. The $10/month reimbursement is a meaningful differentiator — most banks charge for out-of-network ATM use without any reimbursement.


How to Request a Temporary ATM Limit Increase

If you need more than $1,000 in cash on a given day:

  1. Call Ally at 1-877-247-2559 (24/7)
  2. Request a temporary ATM limit increase for a specific date
  3. Ally evaluates based on account age, history, and the amount requested
  4. If approved, the higher limit applies for the requested date only

Alternatively, consider:

  • ACH transfer to a brick-and-mortar bank that allows large cash withdrawals
  • Cashier’s check requested from Ally for large amounts
  • Zelle transfer to someone who can then provide cash (up to $5,000/day)

International ATM Use

Ally Bank does not charge a foreign transaction fee on international debit card purchases or ATM withdrawals. However:

  • Ally’s charge: $0
  • Network conversion fee: May be applied by Visa/Mastercard (typically 1%)
  • Local ATM surcharge: The foreign ATM owner may charge a fee in local currency
  • Reimbursement: The $10/month reimbursement applies to domestic out-of-network fees; international fees may or may not qualify — confirm with Ally at 1-877-247-2559

For frequent international travelers, Ally’s no-foreign-transaction-fee debit card is one of the best options among online banks.
