    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).

    Page 1 of 1 Effective as of 11/23/18 Information About Your Ulster Savings Bank Money Market Account Balance to Open Your Money Market Account must be opened with a minimum deposit of $2,500.00 Balance to Earn Interest If your daily balance is less than $2,500.00, you will earn the Interest Rate and Annual Percentage Yield in effect, as disclosed to you under separate cover, on the entire balance in your account. If your daily balance is $2,500.00 or more you will earn the higher Interest Rate and Annual Percentage Yield in effect, as disclosed to you under separate cover, on the entire balance in your account. Balance to Avoid Fees Your daily balance for every day of the statement cycle period must be at least $2,500.00 to avoid the imposition of a maintenance fee for that period. Variable Rate Features This is a variable rate account. Your Interest Rate and Annual Percentage Yield may change. The Interest Rate is set based on the Bank's discretion and may change at any time at the Bank's discretion. Interest Computation We use the daily balance method to calculate interest on your account. This method applies a periodic rate to the balance in the account each day. Compounding Period Interest compounds on your account daily, using a 365/360 interest factor. Interest Accrual Interest begins to accrue on the business day you deposit non-cash items, such as checks. Although your account may earn interest each day, you may not withdraw the earnings until the end of the interest crediting period (see Payment of Interest).

  • Paying for ATM Usage : Good for Consumers, Bad for Banks ?
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Paying for ATM usage : good for consumers, bad for banks ? Donze, Jocelyn and Dubec, Isabelle Université des Sciences Sociales de Toulouse 16 September 2008 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/10892/ MPRA Paper No. 10892, posted 06 Oct 2008 00:09 UTC Paying for ATM usage: good for consumers, bad for banks? Jocelyn Donze∗and Isabelle Dubec† September 16, 2008 Abstract We compare the effects of the three most common ATM pricing regimes on con- sumers’ welfare and banks’ profits. We consider cases where the ATM usage is free, where customers pay a foreign fee to their bank and where they pay a foreign fee and a surcharge. Paradoxically, when banks set an additional fee profits are decreased. Besides, consumers’ welfare is higher when ATM usage is not free. Surcharges enhance ATM deployment so that consumers prefer paying surcharges when reaching cash is costly. Our results also shed light on the Australian reform that consists in removing the interchange fee. JEL classification: L1,G2 ∗TSE(GREMAQ); [email protected] †TSE(GREMAQ); [email protected]. 1 In most countries, banks share their automated teller machines (hereafter ATMs): a cardholder affiliated to a bank can use an ATM of another bank and make a “foreign with- drawal”. This transaction generates two types of monetary transfers. At the wholesale level, the cardholder’s bank pays an interchange fee to the ATM-owning bank. It is a compensa- tion for the costs of deploying the ATM and providing the service. This interchange system exists in most places where ATMs are shared.1 At the retail level, the pricing of ATM usage varies considerably across countries and periods.

THE SALIENCE THEORY OF CONSUMER FINANCIAL REGULATION Natasha Sarin* August 2018 Abstract Prior to the financial crisis, banks’ fee income was their fastest-growing source of revenue. This revenue was often generated through nefarious bank practices (e.g., ordering overdraft transactions for maximal fees). The crisis focused popular attention on the extent to which current regulatory tools failed consumers in these markets, and policymakers responded: A new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was tasked with monitoring consumer finance products, and some of the earliest post-crisis financial reforms sought to lower consumer costs. This Article is the first to empirically evaluate the success of the consumer finance reform agenda by considering three recent price regulations: a decrease in merchant interchange costs, a cap on credit card penalty fees and interest-rate hikes, and a change to the policy default rule that limited banks’ overdraft revenue.

  • General Questions
    General Questions What does electronic payment mean to me? An electronic payment means you will receive your funds directly into your account. There is no wait for mailing of the check, no need to make a bank deposit or to pay a check cashing fee to access your funds. Your money is readily available to you as soon as the payment is posted to your account. What options do I have? There are two (2) options for receiving your electronic payment: • Debit card, • Direct deposit to your existing checking account. What is the best option for me? In order to select the option that works best for you and your family, you need to evaluate how you spend your money. The debit card carries the MasterCard logo and can be used wherever MasterCard is accepted. You can use the card to purchase groceries, shoes and clothing, household items, pay for car repairs, school supplies, make monthly online payments, to access cash when needed, etc. If this is how you currently use your subsidy funding, then the debit card would be the right choice for you. If you use your funds to make a lump sum payment such as rent or mortgage, or school tuition payments, then the direct deposit option might be a better option for you. Can I choose to receive a paper check instead of an electronic payment? No. The State of New York, Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) in partnership with Local District Department of Social Services agencies, has moved to an electronic payment system.
