Buying an ATM Machine: Everything You Need to Know

Whether this is your first ATM or your fifteenth, these are the questions that come up before you pick a specific machine. For model-specific questions — capacity, screen size, which one fits your location — see the individual Hyosung and Genmega model pages.

Buying FAQ

Buying & Payment

Orders of 10 or more machines may qualify for bulk pricing. Contact us directly at (205) 210-8121 to discuss volume pricing before checkout.

Yes, ACH bank transfer is accepted at checkout alongside major credit cards.

Shipping & Delivery

Yes — every machine ships free within the continental United States, with no minimum order.

Machines are ordered from the distributor after purchase and typically ship within about 2 weeks.

No — shipping is currently available within the continental United States only.

Warranty & Support

New machines carry a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Used/refurbished machines carry a 90-day warranty.

Every ATM bought from Ford Frontier Investments includes free 24/7 support, free transaction processing setup (when processing with Ford Frontier Investments), no hidden fees, and a free programming sheet.

No — transaction processing setup is handled for you at no cost when you process with Ford Frontier Investments, and a programming sheet is included with every machine to guide the rest of the setup (or you can pay to have it factory-programmed or set up on-site — see below).

Ownership & Operation

Yes — when you own the machine outright, you keep all surcharge revenue. (This is different from Ford Frontier Investments' free-placement program, where revenue is shared in exchange for a $0 upfront cost.)

No, but there's a cost either way you should know about: processing setup is free if you process through Ford Frontier Investments. If you'd rather use a different processor, a $500 setup fee applies instead.

Three ways, your choice: program it yourself for free using the included programming sheet (with phone help from Ford Frontier Investments during business hours), pay $150 per machine to have it factory-programmed before it ships, or pay $250 for a technician to come on-site and program it for you.

Ford Frontier Investments buys individual ATMs and full routes from operators looking to exit — reach out directly to discuss.
