I want a cash machine for my shop…

It’s amazing to think than less than 20 years ago, cash machines were only ever found in a banking environment.  After the deregulation of the ATM in 1999, ATM numbers have grown and we now have over 70,000 cash machines throughout the UK.

So why would you have an ATM in your business?

We would ask – why wouldn’t you?  Cash machines in a retail space is now deemed the ‘norm’ and research shows

75% of people now expect a cash machine service to be available…

so what’s in it for the retailer?

First and foremost – it’s an additional service to your customers, and with customers’ expectations rising every year on what a convenience store has to offer, this is a no brainer.  But there are benefits from having an ATM on site from the retailers’ perspective…and that’s anything from increased footfall to a substantial decrease in banking fees.

We recently worked out that if we took an average free to use ATM, in a store operating 7 days a week and using published business banking rates – you could see an additional £6,700 coming into the business (and that’s NOT including the increase in basket spend or additional visits by customers) – we don’t think that too shabby!!
