ATM conference SBS Talks 2015 - Review

On May 6, 2015, the SBS Talks 2015 took place in Salzburg. More than 100 attendees from five nations informed themselves about new trends and innovations in the ATM industry. On the eve before the conference day SBS demonstrates several ATM show-cases in its lab in Salzburg. The participants were able to perform ATM cash withdrawals with contactless cards or mobile phones on an ATM equipped with the SBS multivendor ATM application and NFC technology. Another showcase allowed to use a palm vein scan instead of a PIN entry to authorize the ATM transaction.

On the conference day the attendees enjoyed the following presentations:
