New Requirements for Digital Asset Kiosk Operators
On May 29, 2025, the Oklahoma Legislature passed Senate Bill 1083, which created a new section of law under the Oklahoma Financial Transaction Reporting Act (Title 6 O.S. § 1511 et seq). The new law is now codified in the Oklahoma Statutes as Title 6, Section 1520. The purpose behind the new law is to protect Oklahoma residents from scams and fraudulent activities frequently carried out through digital asset kiosks. Thus, effective November 1, 2025, digital asset kiosk operators are required to be licensed as money transmitters pursuant to the Oklahoma Financial Transaction Reporting Act.
Please email angela.morris@banking.ok.gov and matt.mowdy@banking.ok.gov with questions regarding digital asset kiosks and upcoming renewals.
Please email morgan.heard@banking.ok.gov and matt.mowdy@banking.ok.gov with questions regarding advance change notices.
