Increasing special payment order transactions at ATMs
Years ago, Bankart successfully introduced a service supporting special payment order payments at Diebold ATMs in co-operation with NKBM and the Keas company. Afterwards, a solution was also developed for NCR ATMs in co-operation with Abanka and the Printec company and for Wincor Nixdorf ATMs in co-operation with Gorenjsak banka and the Pexim Cardinfo.
Banks which provide the special payment order payment
In addition to NKBM and Abanka, this service is now also being provided by NLB, Banka Celje, Raiffeisen bank, Gorenjska banka, SKB and UniCredit Banka Slovenija. It is the business policy of each individual bank, the card issuer which supports the service of paying by special payment orders at ATMs, that determines at which ATMs its clients can perform the service in question. Clients with accounts opened at several banks can pay by special payment orders at the ATMs of their home bank as well as other banks providing this service, while others can only pay using these orders at ATMs owned by their bank.
We call upon those banks not yet providing this service of paying by special payment orders at ATMs – if you are interested in introducing this service, please do not hesitate to ask and we will provide you with all the information you need! Rest assured – your clients will be satisfied!
