Abstract

An automated teller machine (ATM) server includes a processor circuit and a memory including machine-readable instructions that cause the server processor circuit to, based on receipt transaction request messages, cause a transaction fee to be debited from a credit account that is associated with an account identifier contained in the transaction request message. A portion of the transaction fee is credited to a prize pool for a progressive jackpot, and the ATM server determines when a triggering condition has been satisfied by content of one of the transaction request messages for one of the ATM transactions. When the triggering condition has been satisfied for a particular one of the transaction request messages, an award message is transmitted including an instruction to award a portion of the prize pool to a user associated with the transaction request message.
