Euro Automatic Cash, owned by Grupo Santander and Euro Information-Credit Mutuel/CIC, partnered with Transaction Network Services to offer managed connectivity for its ATM fleet. TNS migrated EAC's 1,500 ATMs to its solution TNSLink for Unattended, which provides wireless access to route transactions across TNS' Level 1 PCI DSS certified private network, according to a press release.

TNS uses Global Wireless Access SIM cards to offer managed wireless connectivity.

"We chose TNS following a comprehensive review of our connectivity requirements," José Rincón, managing director of EAC, said in the release. "TNS understands the importance we place on the availability of our ATMs, and the enhanced level of service we receive through TNS' 24x7x365 monitoring, combined with the direct access we have to their team in Spain, is a differentiator and a real value-add for our company. Since working with TNS we've seen improvements in the reliability and uptime of our ATMs, and the service is achieving our goals and expectations in terms of the availability of our estate."

"TNS is a trusted connectivity partner to major ATM deployers across Europe," Agustín García Pérez, sales territory director, Spain and Portugal, TNS Payments Market, said in the release. "Providing reliable and secure managed connectivity plays to our strengths of enabling mission-critical transactions and has natural synergies with the emphasis EAC puts on its ATMs being available whenever they are needed. We are delighted to be contributing to EAC's mission and helping deliver high availability ATMs in a range of locations throughout Spain."
