All Self-Service Bounty Clearance Kiosk locations in Starfield

The line from The Fugitive.

While it really is nice to be wanted in life, the same cannot be said in Starfield. If you have a bounty on you from any of the factions, a whole lot of bounty hunters will show up trying to cash in. The good news is that you can get rid of the bounties without too much issue if you know where to go.

All Trackers Alliance Bounty Clearance Kiosk locations

The future is largely controlled and organized through kiosks in Starfield. This applies to bounties as well as almost everything else. Below, you can find an ever-growing list of bounty clearance kiosk locations where you can wipe away your sins for just a handful of credits. You might even find The Hunter chilling out near one of them.

If you wish to avoid a bounty in the first place, then make sure nobody sees you stealing, assaulting an NPC, hacking doors or safes, pickpocketing goods from people, or trespassing somewhere you shouldn’t be. You should also be incredibly careful with your abilities. I used the anti-gravity ability in New Atlantis by accident, and it ended up costing me over 160,000 Credits.

So, don’t have any fun, basically. You can check if you have a bounty on you by opening your star map and looking at the top right of the screen. Any bounty in that space will be listed there, along with the value of it.

Make your way to the Viewport Bar just up and to the left of the landing pad. Go past the security offices, and then head for Jemison Mercantile, and it will be to the left.

Akila City on Akila in Cheyenne

The good news about Akila City is that it really is just like the old west, and a bit of cash can solve all your problems. From the landing pad, head straight into town and you will see a bright red sign for the Hitching Post bar. Head inside to find the Bounty Clearance Kiosk.

Cydonia on Mars in Sol

Make your way into Cydonia, down the main corridor through the hanging barrier, and then look to the right to find the Broken Spear Bar. The bounty kiosk is just inside.

Neon on Volii Alpha in the Volii System

Make your way to Neon and then head all the way inside until you reach the Astral Lounge at the very end of the promenade. The bounty board is just inside the door.

Hopetown on Polvo in the Valo System (the same node as Narion)

At the landing pad, look for the Trade Authority Kiosk. Just beyond that, with one of the worst signs ever, is the Pit Stop Bar. Head inside to find the bounty clearance kiosk.

Deimos Staryard at Mars in the Sol System

Make your way to the Demimos Staryard in Orbit above the Deimos moon of Mars. Head inside, down the first corridor, and then to the left to find the bounty kiosk. This is also a pretty solid shipyard to build at, if you are at a high enough level to get some of the better ship weapons in the game.

Trident Staryard at Akila in Cheyenne

In orbit above Akila you can find the Trident Staryard. Head right down the corridor after you board, and you will find the bounty kiosk on the right side near the main reception area. Also, keep in mind that Trident doesn’t sell any parts or ships at the Trident Staryard.

Civilian Ouptosts and Science Outposts

Civilian Outposts can pop up on various planets, such as the far side of Jemison. They will often have a bounty board and a mission board for you to use if you want to grab a mission or pay off a bounty on your way through.

How to remove a bounty in Starfield

To remove a bounty, all you need to do is find one of the kiosks and interact with it. If you have an active bounty, you will be prompted to pay the fine. It should be noted that you will need to be in a system that is not controlled by the faction that has placed a bounty on you. They won’t let you pay it off in their own territory. Hit Clear Bounty, then pay the fine, although you should be prepared as they can get a bit expensive, depending on your crimes.

If you wish, you can also go to jail, although this will slightly reduce your current XP level. You also lose any stolen goods you have on you, and considering I stole my precious cowboy hat, that is just not an option for me. You can also try and bribe your way out of any situation, and it is usually pretty cheap to do so. That won’t actually get rid of the bounty; it just leaves you free to get arrested another day.
