Floating ATMs
Businessworld reports that State Bank of India (SBI) is launching the world’s first floating ATM in Kerala. The ATM will be on the state-owned ferry and uses CDMA wireless technology to run the machine. Though the ATM is primarily intended to serve backwater regulars, it also hopes to catch the swelling wave of tourists pouring into the state. Seems like the banks are doing everything innovative they can to reach out to their customers.
Incidentally, the other ATM worthy of mention is also from SBI aboard the ship Queen Mary II which is the biggest cruise ship in the world. ICICI bank has started mobile van ATM services in Mumbai.
Way to go for the banks.
