Why Invest in ATM Machines for Your Business?
In a competitive retail and service environment, finding new ways to boost revenue and improve the customer experience is key. One option more business owners are considering is to invest in ATM machines. These machines do more than dispense cash—they bring added value to your location and contribute directly to your bottom line.
At Boston North Company, we help businesses throughout New England select and install ATM solutions that generate passive income, increase foot traffic, and elevate customer service. Let’s explore why adding an ATM to your location could be a smart investment for your business.
How an ATM Adds Value to a Business
An on-site ATM can have a surprisingly positive impact on your business. First, it attracts more people through your doors, especially customers looking to access cash before dining, shopping, or attending an event. Once they’re inside, data shows that many will spend some of that withdrawn cash immediately—often 20 to 30% of it.
ATMs also create a sense of convenience and trust. Customers no longer need to leave your business to find a bank or ATM elsewhere. Instead, they stay longer, shop more, and feel that their needs are being met.
Modern machines also offer advanced features like contactless payment support, EMV compliance, and digital wallet integration, which makes them feel more secure and up-to-date. Whether you run a retail store, restaurant, nightclub, gas station, or hotel, offering access to cash is still a smart way to meet customer expectations and stand out from the competition.
Key Benefits of Owning an ATM
Owning an ATM comes with practical advantages that directly benefit your operations and profitability:
- Recurring revenue from surcharge fees – When you own and stock the machine, you set the surcharge and keep 100% of it. This means recurring income for each transaction.
- Improved customer experience – People appreciate convenience, and being able to get cash on-site eliminates the hassle of finding a bank.
- Reduced credit card processing fees – When more customers pay with cash, your card transaction costs go down.
- Minimal operational costs – Once installed, most ATMs require little day-to-day maintenance.
- Brand differentiation – Especially in hospitality and service industries, having an ATM enhances your overall offerings.
- Reliable performance – Machines from trusted manufacturers like Genmega, Hyosung, and Hantle are built for 24/7 use and durability.
Boston North Company offers installation, support, and full-service options to ensure your ATM investment pays off. Whether you want to manage the machine yourself or prefer a hybrid approach, there’s a solution that fits your needs.
Types of ATM Machines Available
Not every location has the same needs, which is why Boston North Company offers a wide range of ATM models to suit various spaces and business types.
- Freestanding ATMs like the Genmega G2500 are great for convenience stores, gas stations, and general retail.
- Through-the-wall machines such as the Hyosung 2800T or the Genmega GT5000 are ideal for 24-hour service environments. These are popular in lobbies, kiosks, and high-traffic walk-up areas.
- Wall-mounted units, including the Genmega Onyx-W, are perfect for tight spaces like cafés, clubs, and smaller retail counters.
Each machine can be configured with features like high-capacity note cassettes, secure vaults, advanced lock systems, and modern LED interfaces. Explore ATM models and services to see what works best for your space and goals.
Program Options: Full Ownership vs. Assist Model
Boston North Company offers two primary ATM programs to meet different levels of involvement:
- Client Owned & Operated: You purchase the machine, manage the cash fills, and keep 100% of the surcharge revenue.
- Client Assist Program: Boston North Company manages the cash fills while you share in the revenue.
Both options include professional installation, system setup, and staff training. Businesses can select a program based on their desired level of control and maintenance responsibility. Boston North Company is here to help you compare and choose what works best for your business model and budget.
