Wincor Nixdorf is the first ATM vendor in the world to receive Australia s 2 CECS (Consumer Electronic Clearing System) certification for its self-service systems. The certification, conducted by the Australian Payments Clearing Association (APCA), ensures that all ATMs and terminals used for electronic payments comply with specific security standards; in particular, the protection of consumers personal identification numbers (PINs).
Wincor Nixdorf installed ATMs in the network of Cashguard, Australia s largest off-premise ATM service provider. Cashguard signed a contract with Wincor Nixdorf s local sales partner Armaguard and its service subsidiary, ITS, to deliver ATM terminals and software and provide comprehensive support services.
