The Summit Federal Credit Union plans to install updated ATMs at all its locations at various times in 2020.
These new ATMs bring a “new level of convenience to users while using the latest safety features” for personal safety and account security, the Rochester–based credit union announced.
“Over 2019 and 2020, The Summit Federal Credit Union is replacing all ATMs with the latest state-of-the-art systems. Our new fleet of ATMs provides members and guests improved card security, larger colored screens, an improved user interface and enhanced deposit capabilities. We are very excited to make new ATM technologies available to our members and others who may use them,” Dave Harnish, VP of information technology at the Summit Federal Credit Union, said in a statement forwarded to CNYBJ.
The machines have a 19-inch display for “easy viewing” as well as a more “intuitive” interface, with Actiview technology for secure data input and quicker navigation, the Summit said. The machines also “take advantage” of the financial industry’s “leading” data-security enhancements, including upgraded physical security technology and cameras, plus the industry’s first anti-skimming ActivEdge card reader.
No envelopes are needed to deposit cash or checks, the credit union noted.
Each machine upgrade will require “minimal downtime.”
Members of the Summit have access to more than 55,000 surcharge-free ATMs nationwide, the credit union said.
Founded in 1941, the Summit Federal Credit Union is a nonprofit, member-owned financial cooperative. With about $1 billion in assets, the Summit has more than 230 employees and provides financial products and services to more than 85,000 members in Central and Western New York. Its Central New York branches includes offices in Syracuse, Clay, Camillus, Cortland, and Seneca Falls.
The Summit’s president and CEO is Laurie Baker. She took over the credit union’s top job on Feb. 1, after having worked at the Summit for more than 25 years, including as COO since 2001. Baker replaced Mike Vadala, who retired after working at the Summit for more than 35 years, including 25 years as CEO.
