NCR VOYIX CORPORATION TAIPEI, TAIWAN, April 16, 2015- NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), the global leader in consumer transaction technologies, and Cathay United Bank ("CUB") have jointly won the award for "Best ATM and Kiosk Project" at the Asian Banker Technology Implementation Awards 2015, for the successful implementation of NCR's innovative APTRA Connections software across its automated teller machine ("ATM") network. The solution offers personalized ATM transactions to increase customer satisfaction in a highly efficient and low cost way. NCR also partnered with Pershing Systems Corporation, a renowned information technology reseller in Taiwan, on this project.
The solution enables CUB to recognize their customers and display a personalized greeting message. Customers can customize their ATM menu by pre-selecting favorite transaction options that include their usual cash withdrawal amount, bank transfer, QR Code scanning, bill payment options such as life insurance loan and payment, donation and auctions.
