FIS Cardless Cash, which leverages the FIS Mobile Banking app, enables banking customers to withdraw funds from ATMs without having to use a plastic card.
„A planned 24-month rollout of FIS Cardless Cash functionality at Cardtronics ATMs will debut cardless cash access at some of the largest retailers in the United States, as well as enable financial institutions to offer in-network use of cardless cash functionality at both branch and retail ATMs.”, according to the press release.

Customers using FIS Cardless Cash can complete their withdrawals in 10 seconds and get an electronic receipt on their smartphone.
