The ATM Industry Association, with well over 10,000 individual members worldwide, has launched a new system of member referrals whereby member companies can earn a $50 discount on their own membership for each new member referral. In addition, the company joining the association can gain a 20% discount on membership.

"I am frequently asked for information about the industry – its trends, vendors, legislative and regulatory status. The ATMIA website aggregates information so this is always my first stop to find answers. I also encourage everyone to attend the ATMIA U.S. Conference. ATMIA provides the "state of the industry" with wide-ranging and comprehensive topics in their workshops wrapped up with a busy exhibit hall in a fun location. I can't imagine how I'd run my businesses without being a member," says Debbi Haacke, President, TransNational ATM. "I look forward to being able to offer my clients 20 percent off their own ATMIA membership."

The leading non-profit trade association representing the global ATM industry, ATMIA offers members a wide range of educational opportunities, advocacy efforts and connections. Popular education include more than six regional conferences and a half dozen or more webinars each year as well as training and certification through the ATMIA Academy. A variety of committees provides members with both education and the ability to advocate on behalf of the industry. In addition, an extensive library of resources helps connect members with the industry and keep them up to date on the latest trends. Popular items on the site include: the white paper library, industry best practices, member showrooms, a member-to-member connection tool, important research into cash usage and the global ATM industry available through the Market Intelligence Library and the popular Cash Repository website.

"Being a member of ATMIA is vital to our business. As a global company, we rely on ATMIA to keep us informed of legislative and regulatory changes in all the countries we operate in," Karina Zambrano, Managing Director of EuroTechZam. "Being able to offer our customers 20 percent off ATMIA membership is awesome. I hope they find as much value in their membership as we do."

"To make it as easy as possible for members to promote the referral program, we have put together a variety of resources including an email template, website banners, graphics for social media and individual company referral codes that can be found under the 'my account' tab on the ATMIA site to promote the program," said Amber Howell, ATMIA Membership & Social Media Manager. "Members can earn up to $250 US in discounts per year on their own membership renewal."
