DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DEBIT
CARD AND CREDIT CARD
Automated Teller Machines
Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) conduct many transactions that would otherwise
require staff attention: they furnish account information, accept deposits, draw down on
pre-approved loans, and transfer funds. The use of ATMs frees loan officers to focus on
personalized services, and the machines can potentially deliver a broader range of
services. ATMs are most effective for microfinance institutions (MFIs) that accept
savings and want to serve customers in multiple locations and/or during non-business
hours. But since a single machine can cost as much as US$ 35,000 and requires
reliable electric and communications connections, ATM technology may not be the first
choice for all MFIs.
Affordable dial-up or leased line rates for the ATM to send and receive data.
A central database where client data must be stored for balance verification.
Solid operational procedures and resources to distribute cards and control PINs.
MFI personnel are not required to be present for transactions and have more
time to serve clients.
More clients can be reached beyond the branch network, such as in smaller
population centers.
More low-cost funds are available because ATMs make it easier for clients to
deposit savings.
Costs
Costs differ depending on the technology provider and how the ATM network is
operated. If an MFI can partner with an existing ATM network and/or network
operating company, the MFI’s operating expenses will be less.
Up-front equipment acquisition cost or network participation fee.
