NCR, S1 and PayPal to Offer Person-to-Person Payments via ATMs

DULUTH, Ga.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
NCR
Corporation
(NYSE:NCRNews), the worldwide leader in ATMs, today
announced they will be working with PayPal and S1 Corporation to enable
real-time person-to-person payments from their bank’s ATMs to almost
anyone with a mobile phone or e-mail address. This service will
initially be available in the U.S. with the ability to send money to
people in more than 60 countries around the world.

The process for transferring money person-to-person at NCR SelfServ ATMs
is simple. After authenticating themselves at the ATM, consumers will
have an option to send money to an individual. To do so, they will enter
the recipient’s email address or mobile number, choose an amount to
transfer, and the money will be immediately credited to the recipient’s
PayPal account. If the receiver does not have a PayPal account, then he
or she will need to enroll for a PayPal account in order to receive the
funds.

“The ATM channel continues to play a powerful role in delivering new,
multichannel financial services to consumers,” said Michael O’Laughlin,
senior vice president, NCR Financial Services. “Whether it is deposit
automation, bill payment, money transfers or a variety of new and
exciting products and services, NCR SelfServ ATMs provide a secure,
trusted, and ever-present point-of-presence for the exchange of value by
a bank or credit union’s customers and members. This solution is just an
early foray by NCR to extend person-to-person payments options around
the world.”

Initiating a money transfer from an ATM gives a consumer a convenient,
24-hour/7-days-a-week vehicle for instantaneous payment, while
maintaining the trust and security associated with ATM networks. In
addition, person-to-person payments using the NCR/S1/PayPal ATM solution
could be a less expensive transaction than other non-PayPal money
transfer options currently available.

“Banks and credit unions can now bring a highly differentiated set of
capabilities to their retail and business customers,” said Dan Schatt,
general manager, Financial Innovations, PayPal. “Offering PayPal
payments through the ATM channel can enable businesses to instantly pay
their overseas or domestic suppliers and retail bank customers to send
international and domestic payments, all with a few taps on an NCR ATM
machine. We’re proud to be partnering with NCR and S1 on this global
initiative, since both companies have a history of offering innovative
payment solutions to the banking industry. We believe our ATM based
solution will spur the growth of electronic payments in place of less
efficient cash and checks while giving consumers, businesses and banks
significant value.”

The person-to-person payments offering will be available to banks
running on the S1 payment platform and using NCR APTRA Edge in the U.S.
NCR anticipates the service being available beginning in the first
quarter of 2012.

“Financial institutions are always looking to strengthen their
relationships with their customers through new services as well as
generate new streams of revenue,” said Francois van Schoor, divisional
president, S1. “This ATM-based person-to-person payments transaction
will allow financial institutions to give their customers convenient and
trusted access to an important service while maximizing the value of
their self-service network.”
