1: What is "Kahuna" and how does it relate to the ATM industry?

A: "Kahuna" as a brand is about differentiation and standing apart in a mostly traditional banking world. Our company has been in the ATM industry since 1995, and we pride ourselves on being innovative and running counter to "business as usual". Demographic studies have shown that 18-36 year olds are the most frequent ATM users, and "Kahuna" as a brand stands above the generic alternatives. Come surf with us....

2: What does Kahuna Business Group have in common with surfing?

A: Surfers by nature are independent and strong, but also recognize their position in a larger community. They take responsibility for themselves and their own. Kahuna Business Group is based on a cooperative affiliate model, which strives to allow each member individuality and autonomy while simultaneously strengthening the community that we all are part of.

3: What is an Affiliate?

A: At Kahuna Business Group, we have taken a different view on the ATM world than most. What separates us from others in this competitive marketplace is our unique company philosophy. Rather than spending our time and efforts supporting a direct sales force like traditional ISO's, (which could ultimately end up competing with you), Kahuna Business Group is structured as the first true ATM cooperative. The volume and leverage of our Affiliate partners is pooled together and utilized to negotiate the best equipment pricing and processing rates on behalf of our partners. The net result is that our Affiliates receive the pricing and enhanced benefits of a much larger organization without the hassles and commitment of being direct with a manufacturer or processor. The "portability of transactions" and wide range of product offerings from Kahuna Business Group allows you to aggressively pursue new business with confidence.

4: What are the other benefits of becoming an Affiliate?

A: Kahuna Business Group spends a great deal of time and travel researching opportunities and issues that affect the ATM world. We are then able to disseminate any relevant information to those who may not have access on their own, and serve as an advocate in the ATM community. Kahuna Business Group has a full-time administrative support staff eager to assist with all aspects of the ATM business. We have negotiated contracts with multiple processors and multiple equipment vendors. Our administrative team can quickly and efficiently solve all back-of-house needs, potentially saving our Affiliates thousands of dollars in reduced staffing requirements. In short, Kahuna Business Group is the single solution for all your ATM industry needs.

5: How can I become an Affiliate?

A: As a leader in the ATM industry, Kahuna is dedicated to working with individuals and companies that have established themselves in the industry. We are looking for great companies to partner with to improve their results as part of our win-win philosophy. To become a Kahuna Affiliate, we require a committed sales organization with demonstrated experience and integrity in the industry along with a solid plan for the future.

6: What do I gain by joining Kahuna Business Group versus tying myself to just one processor?
