Where to Put the ATM Inside the Store

Getting a good location is step one. Step two is placing the ATM in the right spot inside the business. A good spot can raise use. A bad spot can kill use.

The best ATM spots are:

  • Near the front door
  • Near the main counter
  • Near the exit
  • In a spot that is easy to see

What to avoid:

  • Back rooms
  • Dark corners
  • Areas blocked by shelves
  • Spots where people feel watched

Simple rules for ATM placement:

  • Make it visible from more than one angle
  • Keep it in a well-lit area
  • Leave space to stand and use it

Safety matters too:

  • Put it near cameras if the business has them
  • Pick a spot that feels safe at night
  • Bolt it down
