ATM manufacturer NCR has announced an ATM that does not need to be sheltered from foul weather.

"The NCR SelfServ 28 makes it fast and easy for financial institutions and other businesses to extend their brand by offering ATM services in high traffic off-premise locations, such as sporting events, concert venues and music festivals," the company said.

The new ATMs have both wired and wireless connectivity, and need only a power outlet to operate. They do not require a structure to protect them from the weather-making them more environmentally friendly by eliminating the carbon footprint of offsite buildings. "The NCR SelfServ 28 is designed to be easily deployed and redeployed, allowing a financial institution to enhance its branding efforts with a minimal cost of ownership," the company added.

"To achieve leadership in a consumer-facing market, your brand has to be available wherever your customers are," said Michael O'Laughlin, vice president and general manager for NCR Financial Services. "Through the NCR SelfServ 28, we are able to help financial institutions and other businesses deliver real availability to their customers-when and where they need cash. The NCR SelfServ 28 helps complete the NCR SelfServ family to give our customers a wide variety of ATM options to meet all of their needs."
