What is an ATM? | |
ATMs, short for Automated Teller Machines, allow customers to perform banking transactions anywhere and at anytime. By using a debit or ATM card at an ATM, customers can withdraw cash from checking or savings accounts. Some ATMs also allow customers to make a deposit or transfer money from one account to another or get cash advances using a credit card. Individuals should be aware that many banks charge transaction fees — generally ranging from 50 cents to $3 per transaction — for using another bank's ATM. | |

How do I use the ATM Locations search tool? | |
Type in a city and state, or a zip code. You can further narrow down the list of ATMs by providing a street address, a financial institution’s name, and by checking off any additional criteria you require, such as handicap access or 24-hour access. Click the Search button, and you will be presented with a list of ATMs located near your destination. Click on a specific ATM for further information about its location. Depending on your destination, driving directions and a map may also be available. | |
