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.
Thanks to your support throughout 2021, ATMIA is now in a position to hire a European Content and Advocacy Manager. We are looking for a strong, but diplomatic, person, highly skilled in verbal and written communication, to take our European chapter to the next level, especially in the area of advocacy and communication of industry content. It’ll be a brand new post which will be all about addressing industry issues, while providing vital intelligence to our members in the region.
It’s sad and tragic that a war has recently broken out on the continent; but now, more than ever, we must keep the wheels of business, trade, economic production and the cash cycle turning. This includes our industry, which plays such a vital role in the day-to-day lives of citizens across the world. ATMs and cash help to keep economies ticking. May peace prevail as its time comes.
In just over 200 days, we will meet together again in Berlin for ATMIA’s Europe 2022 ATM & Payments Innovation Summit. This in-person conference in Germany takes place on 19 - 20 October. Celebrating our 25th anniversary of service this year, ATMIA remains deeply committed to Europe. If you wish to speak at this event, please let me know.
Meanwhile, let’s do all we can to keep a level playing field for all our members.
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.

We can never give up. The pandemic has tested our resilience as an industry and as an association. Thanks to the support of members worldwide, and the unshakeable belief in the value of our ATM businesses and services which are provided daily to millions of accountholders, we’ve continued to recover from the initial losses of lockdown, whilst building our future with the global launch of ATM 2.0, an API App model for future-proof ATMs.

ATMIA announced the launch of an ATM and Cash Revival Plan for an ATM industry hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The advocacy plan has two prongs, a Cash Revival Plan and an ATM Revival Plan.

A Time for Post-Pandemic Reinvention

Groups representing the currency, ATM, transportation and security sectors call on governments, central banks, media, business and society to stand up for cash to protect the resilience of the existing payment ecosystem and ensure vulnerable groups are not deprived of the only means of payment that is available to all. Cash is safe: we should stop stigmatising its users.

Currently, the coronavirus pandemic is nowhere near peaking and many economies, markets and societies around the world are starting to buckle under the strain of this spreading health crisis and the drastic measures taken to stop it in its tracks.
Meanwhile, the people surrounding the cash industry continue to work hard to ensure that citizens have access to funds during this critical time. ATMs and cash have always served an important function during other crises and emergencies in the world.
