Embodiments for providing Semi-Automatic ATM Configuration are generally described herein. In some embodiments, obtaining configuration connection details are obtained. The configuration connection details are used to connect to a configuration server and to configure a self-service terminal (SST).

Semi-automatic configuration of a self-service terminal

A method and apparatus are disclosed for performing a transaction at a hand held device. The method comprises the steps of accessing a virtualized operating system and Automated Teller Machine (ATM) application at a hand held device and performing a customer transaction at the hand held device using the virtualized operating system and ATM application.

Transaction performance

A method and apparatus are disclosed for operating an Automated Teller Machine (ATM). The method includes the steps of receiving access to a virtualized operating system and ATM application at an ATM and performing a customer transaction at the ATM using the access to the virtualized operating system and ATM application. A recovery program may be provided to control the ATM if a communication link fails between the ATM and a server providing the access.

Virtualized ATM

A method and apparatus are disclosed for providing information to a customer of a Self-Service Terminal (SST) such as an Automated Teller Machine (ATM). The method includes the steps of updating storage data of a Near Field Communication (NFC) device at an SST and reading data associated with the storage data from the NFC device via a mobile terminal of a customer at the SST.

Information provision

A self-service terminal comprises at least one customer transaction module, a terminal controller, a management component, and a network connection coupled to the terminal controller. The customer transaction module is operable to (i) implement a function associated with a customer transaction, and (ii) provide status information relating to the module. The terminal controller is coupled to the customer transaction module and includes (i) a management component for retrieving status information from the customer transaction module and (ii) a Web services interface for providing access to the retrieved status information to a remote device. The network connection is coupled to the controller and provides the remote device with access to the Web services interface.
