Bringing the Bank to the Doorstep

In many small towns and villages, the nearest bank branch can be several kilometers away, which means a simple cash withdrawal often costs customers hours of travel time. Micro-ATMs solve this problem by turning any local retail counter into a mini banking point, using nothing more than a small handheld device and the customer's Aadhaar-linked bank account.

What a Micro-ATM Enables

  • Instant cash withdrawal using biometric or card authentication
  • Balance enquiry and mini statement on the spot
  • Aadhaar to Aadhaar fund transfer
  • Support for multiple bank accounts through a single device
  • Quick, paperless transactions completed in under a minute

A Win for Retailers and Customers

For retail partners, offering Micro-ATM services means additional commission on every transaction and more reasons for customers to visit their store regularly. For customers, it means safer, faster, and more convenient access to their own money — without the need to travel far or stand in long bank queues.
