LONDON -- NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR - news) has increased the currency-handling capacity of its bunch-cash-accepting ATM, the NCR Personas 73, from 2,000 notes to 8,000 notes.
NCR says its new Personas 73e validates currency and enables a bank to offer real-time credit for cash deposits or bill payments at any time of day in an unattended environment.
NCR says that demand for the Personas 73, which was introduced in September 1999, has been particularly strong in Asia, though NCR is offering the machine across the world.
In addition to bunch-cash deposit, the NCR Personas 73e also enables multi currency deposit with sorting capabilities.
Marcus Haley, vice president of ATM Solutions at NCR's Financial Solutions Division, said, "The original Personas 73 has proved very popular with bank customers who know they can trust it to accept and accurately process their cash deposits. It is this popularity which has led to the need for greater capacity, and we are happy to respond to customer demand with the introduction of the Personas 73e."
