ATM Franchise Business: Any business you start will be difficult, demanding, and difficult to run successfully, including ATM franchise businesses. But what if someone told you that by making a tiny, one-time, refundable investment of about Rs 5 lakh, you might actually earn as much as Rs 60,000–70,000 every month?

Here is all about ATM franchise procedure 

Bank-branded ATMs, such as those from SBI, ICICI, HDFC, PNB, and UBI, to name a few, may give you the impression that the banks are installing them. That is not the case, though. The banks that install the ATMs are actually the ones that these banks hire as contractors, and they finish the ATM installation at various sites.

For the installation of ATMs in India, the majority of banks have agreements with Tata Indicash, Muthoot ATM, and India One ATM. Hence, if you wish to get an ATM franchise from SBI or any other bank, you must apply to these companies through their official websites. While many scams deceive people under the pretence of an ATM franchise, exercise caution and only submit an application through the company’s official website.
