Automated teller machine "Cash machine" Smaller indoor ATMs dispense money inside convenience stores and other busy areas, such as this off-premise Wincor Nixdorf mono-function ATM in Sweden. An automated teller machine (ATM) is a computerized telecommunications device that provides the customers of a financial institution with access to financial transactions in a public space without the need for a human clerk or bank teller. On most modern ATMs, the customer is identified by inserting a plastic ATM card with a magnetic stripe or a plastic smartcard with a chip, that contains a unique card number and some security information, such as an expiration date or CVVC (CVV). Security is provided by the customer entering a personal identification number (PIN). Using an ATM, customers can access their bank accounts in order to make cash withdrawals (or credit card cash advances) and check their account balances as well as purchasing mobile cell phone prepaid credit. ATMs are known by various other names including automated transaction machine,[1] automated banking machine, money machine, bank machine, cash machine, hole-in-the-wall, cashpoint, Bancomat (in various countries in Europe and Russia), Multibanco (after a registered trade mark, in Portugal), and Any Time Money (in India).

In other words the Debit Card holder can pay their bills, at shops exhibiting “Maestro” Logo, using this card instead by cash or cheque. The card holder need not carry cash in future when all the shops provide this facility. SIB's Debit Card can also be used as an ATM card within the ATM network of the Bank.

Since payment is effected only if there is available balance in the customer's account, it is absolutely risk-free for the banks. SIB plans to issue debit cards liberally as an added convenience to its customers which in turn reduces the pressure on cash transactions at the counters. How is CIRRUS relevant to other bank's Maestro Card holders: SIB has acquired “CIRRUS”, the product of MasterCard International. -

(Automated Teller Machine) and Debit Cards Is Rising. ATM Cards Have A
Consumer Decision Making Contest 2001-2002 Study Guide ATM/Debit Cards The popularity of ATM (automated teller machine) and debit cards is rising. ATM cards have a longer history than debit cards, but the National Consumers League estimates that two-thirds of American households are likely to have debit cards by the end of 2000. It is expected that debit cards will rival cash and checks as a form of payment. In the future, “smart cards” with embedded computer chips may replace ATM, debit and credit cards. Single-purpose smart cards can be used for one purpose, like making a phone call, or riding mass transit. The smart card keeps track of how much value is left on your card. Other smart cards have multiple functions - serve as an ATM card, a debit card, a credit card and an electronic cash card. While this Study Guide will not discuss smart cards, they are on the horizon. Future consumers who understand how to select and use ATM and debit cards will know how to evaluate the features and costs of smart cards. ATM and Debit Cards and How They Work Electronic banking transactions are now a part of the American landscape. ATM cards and debit cards play a major role in these transactions. While ATM cards allow us to withdraw cash to meet our needs, debit cards allow us to by-pass the use of cash in point-of-sale (POS) purchases. Debit cards can also be used to withdraw cash from ATM machines. Both types of plastic cards are tied to a basic transaction account, either a checking account or a savings account. -
Bitcoin: a Seemingly Rampant Elevator, Or Is Someone Pushing Its Buttons?
Södertörn University | Institution for Social Sciences Bachelor Thesis (15 hp) | Business Studies - Finance | Spring Semester 2014 Bitcoin: A Seemingly Rampant Elevator, or is Someone Pushing its Buttons? - A Case Study on Bitcoin’s Fluctuations in Price and Concept. Author: Oscar Wandery Supervisor: Maria Smolander Stockholm Södertörn University Business Studies Abstract This study looks at the price mechanism of the digital quasi-currency bitcoin. Through statistical analysis of secondary data a probable significant results regarding correlation and regression between price and different independent variables have been established. The final analysis is pointing towards network effects being a part of the determinants for the crypto-currency’s price. Complimentary to the quantitative study explained above, an implementation of hermeneutic analysis based on secondary theoretical sources, journalistic opinion and a professional qualified judgment has aided the author and study in conceptual understanding. This interpretation has semantic character, and takes a Socratic kickoff regarding the nature of bitcoin as a financial instrument. The analysis runs back and forth throughout the course of the study and finally intertwines with qualitative results in the discussion. It is the author’s impression that a significant dimorphism surrounds bitcoin, calling for a conceptual differentiation leading to practical rethinking. The study takes the shape of a case-study conducted over four months. The author’s location during the process of writing was Stockholm Sweden, but the gathered data is of transnational character. Keywords: Bitcoin, crypto-currency, money, digital money, price fluctuations, financial instruments, financial systems. 2 Stockholm Södertörn University Business Studies Sammanfattning Den här studien tittar på prismekanismen hos den digitala kvasi-valören bitcoin. -
Effects of Automated Teller Machine on the Performance of Nigerian Banks
American Journal of Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2014, Vol. 2, No. 1, 40-46 Available online at http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajams/2/1/7 © Science and Education Publishing DOI:10.12691/ajams-2-1-7 Effects of Automated Teller Machine on the Performance of Nigerian Banks Jegede C.A.* Department of Accounting and finance, Lagos State University, Ojo, Nigeria *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received August 07, 2013; Revised August 24, 2013; Accepted February 07, 2014 Abstract This study investigates the effects of ATM on the performance of Nigerian banks. Available studies have concentrated on the significant dimensions of ATM (automated teller machine) service quality and its effect on customer satisfaction with a bias against ATM producers. The study is motivated by the astronomical challenges confronting the proliferation of ATM infrastructure and attendant financial losss to banks which are often under- reported. Also, there are serious debate on the relevance of ATM technology as most countries in the world are moving away from the virus technology to the more secured chip cards free of credit and debit frauds. Questionnaire was used to collect the data from a convenience sample of 125 employees of five selected banks in Lagos State with interswitch network. Therefore, data collected through the questionnaire were analyzed statistically by using the Software Package for Social Science (SPSS Version 20.0 for Student Version) and chi-square technique. The results indicate that less than the benefits, the deployment of ATMs terminals have averagely improved the performance of Nigerian banks because of the alarming rate of ATM fraud. -

ABSTRACT The organization of automated teller machine (ATM) and electronic banking services in the United States has undergone significant structural changes in the past two or three years that raise questions about the long term prospects for the retail banking industry, the nature of network competition, ATM service pricing, and what role ATMs will play in the development of an interstate banking system. In this paper we investigate ways that banks use ATM services and membership in ATM networks as strategic marketing tools. We also examine how the changes in the size, number, and ownership of ATM networks (from banks or groups of banks to independent operators) have impacted the structure of ATM deployment in the retail banking industry. Finally, we consider how movement toward market saturation is changing how the public values electronic banking services, and what this means for bankers. -
