- It enables a customer to withdraw cash from an ATM using a mobile application
- This is an innovative solution to alleviate the risk of contracting COVID-19
AGS Transact Technologies Limited (AGSTTL), one of India’s leading providers of end-to-end cash and digital payment solutions & automation technology has successfully developed & tested ‘Touchless’ ATM solution in light of COVID-19. ATM cardholders will now be able to withdraw cash from an ATM by scanning a QR code on the machine’s screen without having to touch the surface.
This contactless solution by AGSTTL enables a bank customer to perform all the steps required to withdraw cash from an ATM using the mobile application itself. The customer simply has to scan the QR code displayed on the ATM screen and follow the directions on their respective bank’s mobile application. This includes entering the amount and mPIN required to withdraw the cash from the ATM machine. The QR code feature makes cash withdrawals quicker & more secure and negates the chances of compromising the ATM Pin or card skimming.

“In the wake of the global pandemic, we have been working towards providing customers with a more streamlined and simplified user experience.

Our new Touchless ATM solution is an extension of the flagship QR Cash solution which ensures safety of the users and will provide a seamless cash withdrawal experience with enhanced security. With minimum investment, the banks can enable this solution for their ATM networks by upgrading the existing software. We are confident that this solution will resonate with Banks & customers alike,” said Ravi B. Goyal, Chairman and MD, AGS Transact Technologies Limited
“The seamless, cardless and touchless withdrawal method is designed to provide easy transaction flow, without the need to touch the ATM screen or enter the pin. It will help in minimising apprehension and reinstate customer confidence in using ATMs in the current scenario. Additionally, the solution will further ATM transactions whilst also enabling banks to access consumer data in order to offer customised solutions,” said Mahesh Patel, President & Group Chief Technology Officer, AGS Transact Technologies Limited
AGSTTL has installed, maintained and managed a network of approximately 72,000+ ATMs across the country and also provides customised solutions to several Indian banks. The company had earlier introduced UPI-QR based Cash withdrawal solution in partnership with Bank of India.
