The open architecture design of the Agilis 3 software application reduces the time and cost of implementing advanced functionality, such as branding elements, text messaging and email alerts, receipts via a mobile device and customized preference settings, into the ATM channel. This allows financial institutions to deliver a tailored and enhanced user experience. Additionally, Agilis 3 leverages multi-channel application development, which allows users to initiate a transaction in one channel and execute in another channel.

"In today's environment, it is imperative that banking channels operate synergistically," said Mychal D. Kempt, vice president, North America operations, Diebold. "The open architecture design of Agilis 3 enables an ATM to communicate with other banking channels, such as mobile. We're excited to help our customers stay in tune with consumer technology and best utilize their self-service channel."

With Agilis 3, financial institutions can also align their ATM fleet with imminent changes that will impact the self-service channel, including terminal software migration to Windows 7, Europay, MasterCard^® and Visa^®  (EMV) compliance, payment card industry guidelines (PCI) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations.
