ATM Cost



Purchasing an automated teller machine, or ATM, incorporates many factors in the ATM cost. Initial cash machine costs begin with the decision to lease, rent, own or purchase a franchise. Teller machines are for sale through ATM manufacturers that offer many options.
Buying a co-op cash machine gives you the advantage of dividing the expenses of the maintenance fees, supply charges and price of the ATM, which greatly decreases the overall ATM cost. You will also split the profits with the dealer. If you already own a business you may be eligible for a free-placement ATM, which eliminates much of the financial risk. In return for placing the cash machine in your business the teller machine distributor will be responsible for any fees related to the cash dispenser, and you will also receive a portion of the profits.



Buying an automated teller machine can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $30,000, the average price being $2000. Popular ATM models include the Triton 9100, 9700, RT 2000, RL 5000 and the FT5000; the Tranax Mini-Bank models c4000, x4000, 1500, and 4000; Tidel 3100, 3400, 3600 and 3700 machines; Hyosung 1500, NH1800, 5600, and Nano Cash 3000; NCR SelfServ 25, EasyPoint 62 and Personas; and WRG Genesis and Apollo ATMs. More expensive models include features like automated error recovery, locking cassette, wide range of security options, sheltered pin pad, custom display touch screens and sturdier construction. You can also choose between a portable teller machine or an in-wall machine with an enclosure. ATM installation and training costs must also be taken into account when purchasing a teller machine.
