Enables the transfer of a specific substance or group of related substances from one side of a membrane to the other. Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + H2O + a betaine(out) = ADP + phosphate + a betaine(in). Catalysis of the transfer of amines, including polyamines, from one side of the membrane to the other. Amines are organic compounds that are weakly basic in character and contain an amino (-NH2) or substituted amino group. Catalysis of the transfer of a specific substance or related group of substances from one side of a membrane to the other, up the solute's concentration gradient. The transporter binds the solute and undergoes a series of conformational changes. Transport works equally well in either direction. Catalysis of the transfer of betaine, the N-trimethyl derivative of an amino acid, from one side of the membrane to the other.
