NCR kicks off first virtual teller ATM deployment

Now NCR is going to commence the roll out of the virtual teller ATMs at other financial institutions throughout the US, Canada, Australia and other countries during the next three months, an official statement said.

NCR’s virtual teller ATM, called APTRA
Interactive Teller, has been deployed by a financial institution
for the first time.

US-based Sussex County Federal Credit Union
(FCU) has installed the ATM devices between 19 – 23 March.

Now NCR is going to commence the roll out of
the virtual teller ATMs at “other financial institutions throughout
the US, Canada, Australia and other countries during the next three
months,” an official statement said.

NCR said APTRA ATMs can serve as a an
expansion of a financial institution’s distribution network, by
offering in-branch services such as intelligent deposit capture,
bill payments and new account and loan initiations.

The APTRA ATMs also link bank personnel with
the ATM user through live audio, and visually. The remote tellers
can talk the user through transactions, which cuts down the length
of queues at peak times in-branch, NCR said.

Sussex County FCU CEP Pamela Fleuette said
staff were now able to serve customers faster and that the
intuition had recorded “increasingly heavy transaction
volumes”.
