Keep Your ATMs Connected

Every transaction depends on a live connection. Traditional ATMs need to verify withdrawals and deposits with the bank’s core system, while crypto ATMs must connect in real time to blockchain gateways and exchange APIs. On average, an ATM processes 160–180 transactions per month, generating over $400 in surcharge revenue — and in high-traffic venues where fees can climb to $5 or more per withdrawal, a few hours of downtime can erase hundreds in lost income.

With POND IoT’s reliable connectivity solutions, your ATMs stay online in busy city centers and remote locations alike.

Our solution enables you to:

  • Process cash withdrawals and deposits without interruption
  • Authorize crypto transactions instantly through secure gateways
  • Reduce service costs through remote monitoring and quick issue detection
  • Keep accurate reporting and settlement on schedule
  • Protect sensitive data and maintain secure operations

What Are the Benefits of Multi-Carrier SIM for ATMs?

Nearly 4 in 10 major outages are caused by network provider failures. That’s why redundancy is critical for ATMs and crypto ATMs, where every transaction depends on a live connection.

Keeping your cash machines and crypto ATMs connected without interruptions is crucial for seamless transactions and secure operations. POND IoT’s Multi-Carrier SIM, also known as a Multi-IMSI SIM, automatically switches across networks if one becomes unavailable. This ensures your ATMs remain online, even during outages or coverage gaps.

Key benefits include:

  • Continuous connectivity — maintain real-time access to transaction data and compliance systems, regardless of network availability

  • Reduced downtime — automatic network switching prevents service interruptions, so your ATMs stay operational

  • Reliable coverage — consistent connectivity across urban centers, retail spaces, and remote areas for uninterrupted service and customer trust
