What You Need to Know Before Investing In a Used ATM

From the last few years, we have seen a gradual increase in consumers adoption to use a previously used item and supporting the ‘reduce, recycle and reuse’ initiative. This is an excellent news because people are becoming more and more aware of the surrounding and this trend is going to get bigger by the passage of time. Apart from recycling clothing, home goods, vehicles, how can we forget about ATM machines (the main topic for this post)? Not only are refurbished ATM machines are a cost-effective option, but they can also be a effective way to maximize your RoI (Return on Investment).

Make sure the used ATM machines you plan to purchase is coming from a certified refurbished company. Take a look at the ratings and reviews of the place from websites such as Yelp to ensure that you are dealing with a trustworthy place. The most reputed dealers of used ATMs have a strong base of existing clients who either plan to upgrade to a brand new model or no longer need the existing machine in their business area. Once the ATM machines make a return to the warehouse, they must be cleaned and serviced by a group of experts so that they remain in a good working condition.

Below is a list of things that needs to be considered when an individual is planning to purchase a used ATM machine.

Age - The life span of almost all ATM machines does not exceed 15 years. If you are planning to buy a refurbished ATM which is already a decade old, we think you should reconsider. It is always a good idea to buy an ATM machine which is only a couple years old, as such a machine has plenty of life left and also maintenance and servicing of such a machine will be less complicated than a 10 year old ATM. Keep that in mind.

Compliance - Make sure you know if the machine is ADA and EMV compliant. There is a high chance that a used ATM machine won’t be EMV compliant. However, that’s alright as long as an upgrade is available and a kit for the EMV upgrade is available.

Upgrades - Since ATM standards keep on changing on a regular basis, make sure the machine that you are planning to buy can be upgraded.
