NCR ATM and software solutions enable direct, convenient loan
repayments, as well as direct currency exchange
TBILISI, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 26, 2015--
NCR
Corporation (NYSE: NCR), the global leader in consumer transaction
technologies, announced today that ProCredit
Bank Georgia has chosen NCR and its local partner RS Line to
implement the first intelligent deposit ATMs in the country. Referred to
locally as ‘universal’ ATMs, the NCR intelligent deposit ATMs enable
clients to deposit cash into their accounts, unlike standard ATMs, which
only allow cash withdrawals. At the same time, clients have the
opportunity to view their account balance and recent transactions.
The NCR software and hardware solutions deployed by ProCredit offer
services through a convenient ATM channel that is available around the
clock at ProCredit Bank 24/7 Zones. Another benefit of the new ATMs is
that as more customers use the equipment to make transactions at the
24/7 Zones, bank staff will have more time to devote to clients who need
assistance with other high-quality banking services.
“With the aim of offering our loyal clients innovative banking
solutions, ProCredit Bank has installed new ’universal' cash-in ATMs in
our 24/7 Zones,” said Ketevan Kakheli, Head of Distance Banking at
ProCredit Bank. “One of the main advantages of the new equipment is its
speed. It is not necessary for clients to feed notes into the ATM one by
one, as up to 50 notes can be processed at one time. In addition, the
amount deposited is credited to the account immediately. The cash-in ATM
service is currently only available to ProCredit Bank private clients.
However, the service will also be made available to ProCredit Bank
business clients in the near future. ProCredit Bank will continue to
offer its clients innovative solutions for flexible banking.”
The NCR solution, that includes NCR
SelfServTM 32 ATMs, offers mixed-currency cash deposits
as well as direct currency exchange from Georgian Lari to US Dollars or
Euros and vice versa. NCR SelfServ ATMs are protected against known and
unknown malware and fraud attacks with NCR’s Solidcore Suite for APTRA.
In addition, NCR Skimming Protection Solution (SPS) protects cardholder
data from card skimming attacks by detecting and jamming the signal of
fraudulent skimming devices, as well as notifying the bank in real-time.
“By expanding its traditional self-service services to include cash
deposit and currency exchange functionality, ProCredit Bank Georgia is
now able to improve services with the introduction of one solution,”
explained Igor Panteliushin, Channel Leader for Finance Services
Division in Russia and Commonwealth of Independent States at NCR.
“Investing in self-service solutions helps ProCredit Bank to free up
resources for more complex consulting services, while at the same time
offering innovative client service that is unique in Georgia.”
RS Line Ltd., NCR’s distribution partner for the region, was responsible
for implementing the new technology at ProCredit Bank Georgia. RS Line
offers the entire NCR financial services portfolio, as well as providing
maintenance and repair services for all NCR solutions they deploy.
“ProCredit Georgia identified the value that intelligent cash deposit
technology – referred to locally as universal ATMs – can offer for both
its own operations as well as for its clients,” said George Shavdia,
General Manager at RS Line. “We are proud to support ProCredit as it
brings pioneering financial services to market for the first time in
Georgia, representing a turning point in self-service banking in Georgia
and serving as a vivid example of an innovative alternative way of
handling cash. Thanks to NCR’s innovative solutions and experience, we
were able to tailor and implement the new services within just 12 weeks.”
