Re: USA Technologies, Inc. - Registration Statement on Form S-1

Dear Mr. Jensen:

We have acted as counsel to USA Technologies, Inc., a Pennsylvania
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on the date hereof (the "Registration Statement"). The
Registration Statement covers an aggregate of 2,570,622 shares of
Common Stock ("Common Stock"), 1,666,667 of which are currently
outstanding, and the balance (up to 903,955 shares) of which are
issuable upon the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined (i) the Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, and By-Laws of the Company; (ii) the
resolutions of the Board of Directors evidencing the corporate
proceedings taken by the Company to authorize the issuance of the
Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement; (iii) the
Registration Statement (including all exhibits thereto); and (iv) such
other documents as we have deemed appropriate or necessary as a basis
for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we assumed the authenticity
of all documents and records examined, the conformity with the original
documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, and the
genuineness of all signatures.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and such legal considerations
as we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that (i) the 1,666,667
shares of Common Stock that are currently issued and outstanding are
legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable; and (ii) the 903,955
shares issuable upon exercise of common stock purchase warrants, when
issued, will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to references made to this firm under the
heading "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement and all amendments thereto.

Sincerely,

/s/ LURIO & ASSOCIATES, P.C.
