Payments Card & Mobile reports that ING Turkey, the Dutch banking group’s Turkish subsidiary, has signed agreements with private lenders İşbank and Akbank to allow its customers to use their ATMs. Via these two agreements, over 12,000 ATMs have been put into limitless service for ING customers.
Bank customers will be able to carry out all transactions, such as balance inquiry, cash withdrawal, deposit, and paying credit card debt, using those ATMs free of charge. In addition, ING customers can make QR code and foreign exchange transactions without cards only at the bank’s own ATMs.
