What Is ATM Processing?

ATM processing is the back-end system that manages transactions when customers use an ATM machine to withdraw cash, check balances, or perform other functions. These systems securely route transaction data between the ATM, cardholder’s bank, and network (e.g., Visa, Mastercard, Pulse) in real time.

  • Transaction routing & authorization

  • Terminal management & monitoring

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is merchant processing?

Merchant processing refers to the handling of electronic payment transactions for businesses, typically credit and debit card payments. A payment processor enables these transactions and deposits the funds into the merchant's account.

What do I need to start accepting card payments?

You need a merchant account, a payment gateway (if you're online), and a payment processor. Some platforms bundle these together.

What's the difference between a merchant account and a payment gateway?

A merchant account holds your card transaction funds before they're deposited into your bank account. A payment gateway securely transmits card information from your site to the processor.

What are typical fees for merchant processing?

Common fees include:

Transaction fees (1.5%–3.5%)

Monthly fees

Chargeback fees

PCI compliance fees

What’s the difference between flat-rate and interchange-plus pricing?

Flat-rate is a single percentage per transaction (e.g., 2.9%). Interchange-plus is the actual card network fee (interchange) plus a small markup, which can be more transparent and cost-effective for larger businesses.

How long does it take to receive my funds?

Typically 1–3 business days after the transaction, though high-risk merchants may face longer holds.
