Smart Bits: Mondex Approves Diebold E-Cash ATMs

Diebold Inc. said its i Series and ix Series automated teller machine series have been approved for use in Mondex International's electronic cash systems.

The Mondex "type approval" is an example of how "we have created our ATMs to expand as the technology expands," said Thomas W. Swidarski, senior director of worldwide marketing for Diebold.

Gillian Chard, head of procurement and licensing at London-based Mondex, said the certification ensures that ATM deployers can use their established networks to load value onto smart cards and unload it. Also recently getting Mondex type approval was the Financer terminal of Thyron Ltd., Watford, England.
