Banks are divesting ATM networks, and consumer demand for cash remains steady—even growing in some markets. At the same time, multifunctional ATMs are introducing new revenue streams, from deposits to advertising.

Every transaction matters. When connectivity fails, revenue is lost, customer trust erodes, and technical teams are forced into costly firefighting. Traditional telco solutions and fragmented vendor models can’t keep pace with these demands.

Cut the Complexity, Scale with Ease

Modern ATMs do far more than dispense cash. They connect into:

  • Cash management systems
  • Advertising and value-added service platforms
  • Maintenance and service provider systems
  • Cloud-based applications
  • Video surveillance for cash delivery and ATM security

This diversity creates a web of endpoints that must communicate reliably and securely. Each additional integration increases the risk of downtime and compliance gaps.

Instead of juggling multiple carriers and hardware partners, IADs can consolidate connectivity services under one accountable partner with TNSLink.

Always On, Availability Across Every Endpoint

Traditional telco models, with single-carrier dependency and limited failover options, leave operators exposed to outages that can ripple across entire networks.

TNSLink is engineered for resilience at every layer of the connectivity stack:

  • Core Network Redundancy: Built on a globally integrated backbone designed for 99.99% uptime.
  • Site Level Redundancy: Enables automatic failover at each location using redundant access paths orchestrated through SD‑WAN, ensuring continuous connectivity without reliance on separate ISP-based designs.
  • Smart SIM Technology: Multi-carrier SIMs automatically switch to the best-performing network when disruptions occur, eliminating reliance on a single provider.

This architecture is the surest path to uninterrupted service for estates of any size.

Visibility That Drives Action

Managing a large ATM estate without real-time visibility is like flying blind. When connectivity issues arise, operators often resort to costly truck rolls—sending engineers into the field without knowing the root cause. This reactive approach inflates operational costs and prolongs downtime.

Through TNSOnline, IADs gain centralized control and actionable insights:

  • Real-Time Performance Monitoring: Track device status and wireless network health.
  • Remote Diagnostics: Identify and resolve issues before dispatching engineers, reducing unnecessary site visits.
  • Proactive Support: 24/7/365 monitoring from TNS’ Global Network Service Centers, backed by expert technicians.

This visibility transforms operations from reactive to proactive.

Security Built In

Operating in highly regulated environments means every transaction must be secured end-to-end, and every network component must meet stringent compliance standards. A single vulnerability can lead to financial penalties, reputational damage, and operational disruption.

TNSLink addresses this challenge by embedding security into the core of its architecture. It operates on a PCI DSS Level 1-certified network, ensuring that every transaction is transmitted securely across thousands of global endpoints.

This security-first approach reduces audit complexity and provides peace of mind that connectivity will never become a weak link as estates expand.
