STRATEGIC REPORT Cardtronics plc is a public limited company incorporated in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act and listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC. The terms “Cardtronics”, “Company”, “we”, “us,” and “our,” refer to Cardtronics plc and/or our subsidiaries, depending on the context in which the statements are made. Amounts shown within this report are reported in United States Dollars (“USD”), the Company’s reporting currency. The following items within our consolidated financial statements are herein incorporated by reference: Part I, Item 1, “Business”, Item1A, “Risk Factors” and Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. Business model Cardtronics plc provides convenient automated consumer financial services through its network of automated teller machines (“ATMs”) and multi-function financial services kiosks. As of 31 December 2017, we were the world’s largest retail ATM owner/operator, providing services to approximately 230,000 devices throughout the United States (“U.S.”) (including the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico), the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), Canada, Australia & New Zealand, South Africa, Ireland, Germany, Spain and Mexico. We discontinued our operations in Poland during the three months ended 31 December 2017. We partner with retail merchants of varying sizes to place our ATMs and kiosks within their store locations. We generally operate ATMs under three distinct arrangements: Company-owned ATM placements, merchant-owned ATM placements, and managed services. Under Company-owned arrangements, we provide the physical device (ATM) and are typically responsible for all aspects of its operations, including transaction processing, managing cash and cash delivery, supplies, and telecommunications, as well as routine and technical maintenance. Under merchant- owned arrangements, the retail merchant or an independent distributor owns the device and is usually responsible for providing cash and performing simple maintenance tasks, while we provide other services including more complex maintenance services, transaction processing, and connection to the EFT networks. Finally, we offer various forms of managed services to our retail and financial institution customers where, in exchange for a management fee per ATM or set fee per transaction, we handle some or all of the operational aspects associated with operating an ATM. We also own and operate electronic funds transfer (“EFT”) transaction processing platforms that provide transaction processing services to our network of ATMs, as well as to other ATMs owned and operated by third parties. In addition to our retail merchant relationships, we partner with leading national financial institutions to brand selected ATMs and financial services kiosks within our network. Under these arrangements, the branding institution’s customers are provided surcharge free access to the branded ATMs and we receive monthly fees on a per-ATM basis from the branding institution. We also own and operate the Allpoint network (“Allpoint”), the largest surcharge-free ATM network within the U.S. (based on the number of participating ATMs). Allpoint, which has approximately 55,000 participating ATMs, provides surcharge-free ATM access to customers of approximately 1,000 participating financial institutions in exchange for either a fixed monthly fee per cardholder or a set fee per transaction that is paid by the financial institutions who are members of the network. Strategy and objectives Our strategy is to leverage the expertise and scale we have built in our largest markets, and to continue to expand in those markets. Additionally, we seek to grow in our other markets, and over time to expand into new international markets to enhance our position as a leading provider of automated consumer financial services. We plan to continue partnering with leading financial institutions and retailers to expand our network of conveniently located ATMs. We also intend to expand our capabilities and service offerings to financial institutions, particularly in the U.S. the U.K., Canada, and Australia, where we have established businesses and where we are seeing increasing demand from financial institutions for outsourcing of ATM-related services. Additionally, we will seek to deploy additional products and services that will further incentivise consumers to utilise our network of ATMs. In the future, we may seek to diversify our revenues beyond services provided by ATMs. 1 STRATEGIC REPORT (continued) In order to execute our strategy, we endeavour to: Increase the Number of Deployed ATMs with Existing and New Merchant Relationships. Expand our Relationships with Leading Financial Institutions. Work with Non-Traditional Financial Institutions and Card Issuers to Further Leverage our Extensive ATM Network. Increase Transaction Levels at our Existing Locations. Develop and Provide Additional Services at our Existing ATMs. Pursue Additional Managed Services Opportunities. Please see Part I, Item 1, “Business” within our consolidated financial statements below for additional information on our strategy. Principal risks and uncertainties The directors of Cardtronics plc confirm that the Company maintains a robust risk assessment and risk management process in order to mitigate risks that would threaten our business model, future performance, solvency or liquidity. Such risks are discussed further under the sections of this report entitled “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Competition”, and “Risk Factors”. Longer term viability statement - recent events and strategic outlook Sources of revenues We derive our revenues primarily from providing ATM and automated consumer financial services, bank-branding, surcharge-free network offerings, and sales and services of ATM equipment. We currently classify revenues into two primary categories: (i) ATM operating revenues and (ii) ATM product sales and other revenues. ATM operating revenues. We present revenues from ATM and automated consumer financial services, bank-branding arrangements, surcharge-free network offerings, and managed services in the ATM operating revenues line item in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. These revenues include the fees we earn per transaction on our ATMs, fees we earn from bank-branding arrangements and our surcharge-free network offerings, fees we earn on managed services arrangements, and fees earned from providing certain ATM management services. Our revenues from ATM services have increased in recent years due to the acquisitions we have completed, by unit expansion with our customer base, acquisition of new merchant relationships, expansion of our bank-branding program, growth of our Allpoint network, fee increases at certain locations, and introduction of new services, such as Dynamic Currency Conversion (“DCC”). ATM operating revenues primarily consist of the four following components: (i) surcharge revenue, (ii) interchange revenue, (iii) bank-branding and surcharge-free network revenue, and (iv) managed services and processing revenue. 2 STRATEGIC REPORT (continued) Surcharge revenue. A surcharge fee represents a convenience fee paid by the cardholder for making a cash withdrawal from an ATM. Surcharge fees often vary by the arrangement type under which we place our ATMs and can vary widely based on the location of the ATM and the nature of the contracts negotiated with our merchants. For the ATMs that we own or operate that participate in surcharge-free networks, we do not receive surcharge fees related to withdrawal transactions from cardholders who participate in these networks; rather we receive interchange and bank-branding or surcharge-free network revenues, which are further discussed below.

Department of Co^ rvxACQL -* r__>QXj (j[ JUv^k The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date AfC\ > ZofW DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT This thesis concerns the effects of network member features on the pricing of automated teller machine (ATM) transactions. The first chapter outlines the development of ATM networks and provides an institutional and public policy backdrop for the theoretical and empirical analysis in the thesis. ATM fees have recently received increased attention in North America due to the Interac abuse of dominance case in Canada and the widespread introduction of surcharge fees at ATMs in the United States. In Chapter 2, a new circular spatial model of ATM networks is developed and used to analyze the pricing preferences of banks when choosing to link their proprietary ATM networks into a shared network.

  • Chapter 1 Introduction
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Globally, banking system is working continuously from many years. Paper money or cash has been leading payment mechanism worldwide for the centuries. The measure works of a bank to deposits an amount of a customer and returns it to him when he needs. During deposits and withdrawal of the amount bank may use this money for itself as to given loans to other customers who wants to avail it. There are so many types of loan like home loan, agricultural loan, personnel loan, loan for industries and business houses etc. Banks give a particular interest for the depositors on his money and take a certain interest from loan account holder. There are very fast changes occur in the traditional banking operation system. Before a decade ago a bank was involved only with customers when they were at premises of bank. But during this new time a bank provides many more services to the customer’s at their doorsteps. The entire system of banking has changed drastically. In banking system there are two most frequent and important services- one is to deposit cash in the account and second to withdraw cash from the account. Both the service provided to a customer during a time in which banks are open and officials present at that time. Here in this work our main concern is about the withdrawal service provided by the bank. Banks normally provide this cash through teller counters. Only in the past century paper money or cash faced competition from mainly cheques, debit and credit cards. Previously this whole process was thoroughly manual and nowadays it is automatic.

  • Italy – ITC – Italian Language and Food Culture
    Italy – ITC – Italian Language and Food Culture You will need to make preparations now for the Experiment participant to be able to access money while abroad. In general, it is not as common in some countries as it is in the U.S. to use cards for most transactions. You must be able to get cash in the local currency to use for smaller purchases, such as drinks, and you may opt to use a card for bigger purchases, if the merchant accepts cards. There will most likely be a foreign transaction fee every time you make a purchase with a card abroad. The quickest and cheapest way to get cash while traveling abroad is directly from an ATM. Exchange bureaus at airports and elsewhere have high rates, fees, and commission. Exchange options vary in quality and convenience, especially for minors. For Experimenters to access cash abroad, these are our recommendations. The Experiment does not endorse a particular card or bank. • Acquire a VISA or MasterCard debit card that is linked to an international interbank network. (See FAQs below.) You will need one in the Experimenter’s name with direct access to an account with funds and a PIN, or personal identification number. You may need to set up a new checking account in the participant’s name. A great option is an account that parents/guardians and kids manage together; two examples are the Capital One MONEY card and a Chase Student Checking account. With these accounts, parents/guardians can check balances and add funds online, as well as take immediate action from home if a card is lost or stolen.
