Outerwall Inc. (formerly Coinstar, Inc.) is an American company with a network of movie and video game rental kiosks as well as coin-cashing machines.

Outerwall operates Coinstar machines which deduct a fee for conversion of coins to banknotes, and Coinstar Exchange for gift cards. The Company also owns the Redbox DVD rental service. Outerwall's kiosks are in the front of stores (between the cash registers and the exit/entrance). The Company also produces machines that provide prepaid credit cards, cellular phone cards, tickets to concerts, and e-payment kiosks. It is also developing kiosks for pharmaceutical dispensing.The company was acquired by Apollo Global Management in 2016. After the acquisition, it split into Redbox, Coinstar, and ecoATM.
