Payments for Canadian ATM operators.

Payments for ATM operators in Canada go both ways: settlements come in, and the carrier gets paid. Your debit card processor settles into one Invincible Pay wallet by EFT. You pay the carrier from the same balance.

Video: how an ATM operator takes settlements in and pays its carrier from one wallet

Here's how money moves through Invincible Pay for an ATM operator. Take Keystone ATM Services. It runs cash machines in stores, bars and gas stations.

People use their debit cards at Keystone's machines to take out cash. The debit card processor then settles those withdrawals by EFT, straight into Keystone's wallet.

To keep the machines full, an armoured carrier regularly loads them with fresh cash. Keystone then pays its carrier or cash provider for that cash with one EFT from the same wallet.

That's how we help ATM operators, by taking in your settlements and paying your carrier from one wallet, so you can keep every machine stocked. Let Invincible Pay make your settlements and carrier payments the easy part of running your ATM business.

What makes ATM payments hard with regular providers

Running cash machines means two kinds of payments every week: settlements coming in and the cash provider going out. Regular providers make both harder than they should be.

  1. Cash businesses get turned away

    A typical bank is wary of any business that moves cash. ATM operators can be turned away before anyone asks how their machines settle.

  2. Money in two places

    When settlements land in one account and your carrier is paid from another, part of every week goes on moving money between them.

One wallet for both sides of your ATMs

Your processor settles into the wallet by EFT, typically in 1 business day. Add your armoured carrier or cash provider as a beneficiary once, then pay it by EFT, or by a same-day wire when the cash is needed today.

Settlements and carrier payments in one history

Withdrawals come back to you as card settlements. The cash in your machines is bought from your carrier or cash provider. Both show up in the same wallet.

You see the week's settlements beside the payment for the cash your carrier loaded, without moving money between two accounts first.

What we'll ask an ATM operator

We'll ask about your machines, your processor and your carrier, so we can set up the flow of funds with you.

Bring your processor's settlement details to the call.
  • Your machines: how many you run, and the kinds of places they're in.
  • Your debit card processor, and how it settles your withdrawals today.
  • Your armoured carrier or cash provider, and how you pay them for the cash they load.
  • Your monthly volume: the settlements coming in and the carrier payments going out.
  • Your owners and directors: every director and officer, and anyone owning 25% or more, verifies their identity online.
  • Your FINTRAC registration, if you're registered as a money services business, with your AML compliance policy.

From a cash withdrawal to the next refill

One withdrawal at your machine, all the way to the next refill. The cash stays with your carrier; the settlement and the carrier's payment run through your wallet.

  1. At your machines

    People withdraw cash

    People use their debit cards to take out cash at your machines, in stores, bars and gas stations. The cash never passes through Invincible Pay.

  2. Your card processor

    Settlements arrive by EFT

    Your debit card processor settles those withdrawals by EFT to your wallet's own deposit details, typically in 1 business day.

ATM operators ask us about settlements and carriers

No. Your armoured carrier loads your machines, and the cash never passes through us. We handle the electronic side: card settlements come into your wallet by EFT, and you pay your carrier or cash provider from it.
Yes. Your wallet has its own institution, transit and account numbers, so your processor can settle withdrawals straight into it by EFT. A settlement typically arrives in 1 business day.
With one EFT from your wallet, which typically arrives in 1 business day, or a wire the same day. You can also send Interac e-Transfers, up to $25,000 per transfer with no daily limit.
Yes. Machines in stores, bars and gas stations can all settle to the same deposit details. Tell us how your processor settles today, and we'll walk you through moving it.
The application takes about 20 minutes. We usually make a decision within 3 business days, and your deposit details can take settlements within 5, once we have your documents.
