This ATM system currently holds the European ATM award for most accessible, most functional and most complete.

It has sight-less support, voice feedback support, and over a hundred languages.

Prizes won so far: Trailblazer Awards, DiscapNet, Atmia Service Award.

Spanish companies adopting similar systems soon : BBVA; Santander.

BBVA's one screen prototype: ( there's a 2-screen more closed and "private" one too).

PD: both BBVA's and Caixabank's allow the ATM machine to perform operations from a compatible phone, so, you can tell your phone to "withdraw cash", and it'll say "get to your nearest new-version ATM machine, drop your device onto the NFC contactless zone, and the cash will come out".

It looks like a self service terminal, which allows (probably only CaixaBank) customers to do all sorts of tasks like executing wiretransfers, deposit cash, insert wire transfer paper templates, cheques etc.
