How to Load an ATM Machine

Some of the most frequent questions about the ATM Machine business is How do you load an ATM Machine with Cash and the follow up question is how much does it hold.

The answer to how much cash does an ATM Machine hold really depends on the type of ATM Machine and the type of Cash Cassette. There are fixed cassette’s (meaning non-removable) these are typically in lower end ATM machines designed for low volume locations. There are removable cassettes in all sorts of configurations from small Triton TDM (see video below) to the Mini Mech and the SDD or multi cassette machines for multiple denominations.

In retail locations you mostly see the TDM or the Talaris dispensers (formerly De La Rue SDD or De La Rue MiniMech). All of these are easy to load but have different capacities as well as longevity based on use (volume of transactions). Most retail based ATM Machines only have a few hundred to a few thousand dollars and are loaded and unloaded daily to reduce the temptation of stupid criminals.
