“The gradual acceptance of the ATM as a Service (AaaS) concept is backed up with signed deals between the company and three financial institutions in Nigeria; one of the tier I banks, a commercial banks and microfinance bank in the country,” CWG’s Product Manager, Adeshile Adekanbi, disclosed.

The firm said the concept is sure to be adopted by more financial institutions as the platform has embedded more innovations.

With every innovation out of the stables of CWG Plc, AaaS was initiated with the aim of allow banks focus on their core competencies whilst allowing technology platform providers such as CWG drive their ATM Businesses.

“We have in place separate teams, trained and prepared for these innovative extensionst whilst some of our other skilled and experience staff across varying competencies in the group are constantly available to provide continued support,” he explained.
