You’ve heard the old adage, “A rising tide lifts all boats.” As a Member or Sponsor of the ATM Industry Association, you’ll find this statement couldn’t be more accurate, since serving the greater industry through association work improves its operating and regulatory environment and reinforces corporate governance. Sharon Lane, ATMIA’s Global Director, Finance and Member Services shares that “Over the years, ATMIA has successfully voiced its members’ concerns to regulatory authorities on a number of issues, whilst reinforcing to its members the importance of a code of conduct, best practices and compliance guidelines. The association has completed a set of security best practices covering the lifecycle of the ATM and has worked in several countries with law enforcement agencies to help prevent and reduce ATM crime fraud.”  

ATMIA represents 2,450 plus members globally from the following sectors:  Independent ATM Deployers (IADs), Financial Institutions, ATM Manufacturers, Network Processors, ATM Mobile Technology, Software Providers, Consultants and Legal Experts, Signage, Kiosks, and more all involved and connected to the ATM industry.  ATMIA promotes and represents co-operation throughout the ATM industry.     

We all NEED to work together on Industry Issues!

Mike Lee, CEO of ATMIA states, “ATMIA is a one-stop shop for resolution, effectiveness, collaboration and proper self-regulation. In every industry there are areas of common interest as well as common threats. These are best tackled together. This principle also applies to the area of regulation. Since an independent non-profit organization like ATMIA acts as an agent for self-regulation, it has the function of meeting with regulators to discuss industry governance. It represents the interests of the industry through education, communication and, where required, lobbying.”
