ATM SOLUTIONS Why is having an ATM good for your business?ATM’s not only earn income for your business but also drive additional customers into your store. An ATM earns you income from each transaction processed and helps increase your sales by providing cash to customers who will likely spend a portion of it at your location. Here’s How it Works- A merchant places an ATM in their store and charges a fee for customers to use it. The fee usually ranges from $1.50-$3.00 depending on the location. A typical convenience store averages 400 cash ATM withdrawals every month. At $2.50 per withdrawal, the merchant would earn $1000 profit after 400 withdrawals! Transaction profits, however, are only part of the reason why a merchant should place an ATM in their business. At 400 withdrawals a month that means about 13 people a day are withdrawing an average of $40.00- $50.00 from the ATM. These same people will spend approximately 10-12% of that money in your store. (Figures are based on studies done by 7-Eleven and Convenience Store Decisions Magazine). By advertising in your window or above you entrance with a bright neon sign outside your store, most merchants discover they are also making money off of people that are not necessarily customers. By pulling additional non-customers into your store to get cash and then converting some of these people into customers helps you grow your business and increase sales!
