Dear Valued Member,
The pandemic showed us how to rally together like never before in our industry and I’m sure we will go from strength to strength in 2022, having proved, beyond any reasonable doubt, how resilient the ATM industry is. I salute this strong industry.
Looking ahead, the architectural blueprint for the future of ATM technology has been agreed upon globally. We have standard APIs for a new API App Model for ATMs. Our industry’s future-proofing over the past few years has been second to none and I haven’t seen many big industries like ours progress so far down the path of reinvention. We are in a GOOD SPACE. Expect more and more innovation: it’s coming on the wings of our Next Gen ATM template.
The industry’s first global intelligence system for combating ATM crime and fraud has been unleashed, too. I’m talking about the ATM Security Association’s Crisis and Crime Management Intelligence System (CCMIS), with over 7,000 global incidents recorded so far. Going beyond reports on national and regional trends, we now have the opportunity to use a powerful worldwide database for a much truer global picture of crime and fraud threats. In addition, the CCMIS provides free access to bona fide law enforcement officers, to enable law enforcement and the industry to work together on combating, at an international level, the real global migration patterns of crime and fraud.
At ATMIA, we have lots of hope for the years that lie ahead. Together, always together, we can achieve so much more than what we can do when divided. It’s time to stay united behind the only international trade association serving all segments of the industry on our level playing-field.

Member of the Month
March and April 2022 - Paycorp
Steven Kark and Rowan Swartz founded ATM Solutions, the first Independent ATM Deployer (IAD) in South Africa in 1999, from a small office in Johannesburg. ATM Solutions was to be the first of a number of successful Paycorp group companies.
In March 2000, they installed their first ATM in convenience retail, a dramatic move away from the accepted practice of ATMs only being supplied by banks at branch and select off-site locations. They were the first to offer merchants the ability to load their ATM with cash from their tills. Today they are a leader in ATM management and transaction processing across Southern Africa, Central and Eastern Europe and the United Kingdom. From that early triumph they pioneered one innovation after another, and not just in their ATM business.
In 2013, Paycorp was the subject of a management buy-out from Transaction Capital Ltd. Global private equity firm, Actis became Paycorp’s majority shareholder with Steven Kark and his executive team, co-investors. Headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa, their journey spanning two decaded of payments innovations has secured their position as a respected, global payments provider and a leader in their field of ATM management and transaction processing with offices worldwide staffed by 500 highly skilled people.
ATMIA congratulates them for being loyal Board members since 2002.

KAL’s XFS4IoT SP-Dev Workgroup Celebrates a Phenomenal Year of Progress
by KAL
2021 was a remarkable year for KAL’s XFS4IoT SP-Dev workgroup in its mission to jumpstart the latest API standard for ATMs. The year began with the first ever workgroup meeting and ended with all of the frameworks needed to support a Cash-Out ATM. From card readers to guest speakers, this article will review the progress so far and help to set the scene for the road ahead.
What is the XFS4IoT SP-Dev Workgroup?
The XFS4IoT SP-Dev workgroup is dedicated to developing KAL’s open-source framework for creating ATM Service Providers (SPs). This framework is available via KAL’s public GitHub repository.
Established in March 2021, the workgroup was an instant success – attracting ATM manufacturers, software vendors and other industry colleagues from over 70 companies. A total of twelve workgroup conference calls took place last year, and members were equipped with comprehensive resources for rapid, high quality SP creation. The workgroup also supported the project goals by asking questions, providing feedback, reviewing code and creating XFS4IoT SPs for their own devices.
