ATM2GO will use the TNSLink for ATMs solution to handle
communications from the diverse range of locations its terminals
serve which includes clubs, food outlets, festivals and sporting
tournaments among others.
Jenny Marsh, Director at ATM2GO, said: “We’re enjoying an
exciting period of sustained growth and expansion and needed to
work with an ATM communications specialist that recognises the
unique needs of our industry. We have chosen TNS because of its
proven and reliable hardware, its reputation and the 24/7 support
it offers. Many of our mobile terminals are deployed at weekends so
as well as the ability to handle high traffic volumes we needed a
network that came with round the clock support for peace of
mind.”
TNSLink is a fully managed service which helps to maximise
uptime and reliability, while reducing capital and operating costs.
The integrated TNSOnline and TNSVision analytic tools provide
crucial visibility into ATM fleet performance in near
real-time.
John Tait, Managing Director of TNS’ Payments Division for the
Asia Pacific region, said: “We’re delighted to be working with
ATM2GO. A significant proportion of its 270-strong ATM estate
covers mobile sites which frequently change. We have extensive
experience managing the demanding requirements of this type of ATM,
such as the critical need to be able to connect quickly and easily
when sited. Often deployed at a moment’s notice, we are able to
support the communications requirements instantly, including high
traffic locations which can see in excess of 1,000 transactions a
day.”
TNS’ extensive relationship with Australia’s telecommunications
organisations means it can provide 4G service in the majority of
locations. The TNSLink solution now supports more than 100,000 ATMs
globally, including many hard to reach rural areas. This innovative
technology can be set up with dual SIMs as well as wired with
wireless backup to maximise performance. A new signal strength
mobile application allows field technicians to improve the ability
to deploy wireless ATMs successfully on the first attempt.
Mr Tait said: “ATM2GO needed the migration to be completed
within 8 weeks and our team easily met this objective through
efficient planning and deployment. We look forward to supporting
ATM2GO as it continues its growth this year and into the
future.”
Founded in 2011, ATM2GO’s owners have over 25 years combined
experience in the ATM industry. Its fleet of user friendly retail
and mobile ATMs are operated by franchisees who can offer an added
level of local knowledge and on-site expertise.

more than 60 countries across Europe, the Americas and the Asia
Pacific regions. The organization has secured a strong payments
heritage and is a Level 1 PCI DSS certified service provider and a
