Three Benefits of of Outsourcing Your ATMs
BFC Enterprises • September 13, 2024
Consumers want and expect immediate access to their money ‒ no matter where they are, day or night. Yet, behind the scenes, owning and operating one ATM or thousands is a complex endeavor.
ATMs need constant attention, whether it’s replenishing and balancing cash, fixing broken parts, or upgrading hardware and software. ATM outsourcing or managed services programs are beneficial to merchants and financial institution on many levels because they eliminate many of the day to day responsibilities associated with ATMs.
Outsourcing produces immediate benefits, such as:
Reduced Costs. Generating a steady profit with an ATM can be a challenge for busy merchants as they try to juggle regular ATM maintenance and accounting with the responsibilities of running their business. By choosing an outsourcing program, business owners can streamline daily business routines, allowing managers and employees more time for other, vital tasks. Growing compliance regulations also demand updates, upgrades and new technology for terminals, which can create financial challenges and extra work for merchants with ATMs. With
ATM outsourcing, a third-party provider completes all necessary updates as part of the maintenance contract, for a single monthly payment.
Generate Revenue. When partnering with an outsourcing company, the ATM can be branded, meaning an update in signage, personalized ATM screens, and possibly new software and capabilities. Having a branded ATM can draw more foot traffic to your location as customers look for dependable, secure and familiar terminals to complete their transactions. As ATM revenue increases with higher usage, your business is likely to see a boost as well. Studies show that customers are likely to spend as much as 20-25% of their withdrawal at the location where the ATM is located.
Top-Notch Services and Management. Many merchants don’t have time to look into all the newest technologies for their ATM. Outsourcing companies have access to the latest tools and updates, and it is their primary objective to streamline the management of their ATMs. The end result is having a high-functioning, visually-appealing, secure terminal that draws new customers without the hassle of maintenance to your terminal.

That's exactly why partnering with BFC Enterprises to select and manage your amusement games is a smart move. You get expertly matched equipment that maximizes fun, keeps customers engaged, and hits your revenue goals, without any of the guesswork or hassle. Game Selection Backed by Real Experience BFC Enterprises has spent decades placing games in all kinds of business environments. We've seen what works in shopping centers versus family restaurants. We know which games draw teenagers at youth sports facilities and which ones keep adults entertained at bars while they wait for their food. When we evaluate your location, we're looking at your customer base, your foot traffic patterns, and your available space. We're thinking about who's walking through your doors, how long they typically stay, and what kind of entertainment matches their vibe. Then we match game styles to those factors for optimal performance. You shouldn't have to figure this out through expensive trial and error. We already know what works. Maximize Play and Profit Here's a truth every business owner should know: not all amusement games perform equally in every location. Some games get tons of attention and consistent play.

That's why we don't just set it and forget it. BFC Enterprises actively monitors game performance at your location. When we notice engagement dropping or when there's an opportunity to refresh things, we rotate games to keep your customers interested and having fun. We also select seasonal prizes that keep people playing longer and coming back to see what's new. The best part? You don’t have to track any of this yourself. We handle the strategy, the swaps, and the prize selection. Your customers stay entertained, and you keep earning, all without lifting a finger.
