Withdraw cash from the ATM. Depending on the ATM, you’ll have the option for a “Fast Cash” withdrawal or a regular withdrawal. Fast Cash allows you to quickly select and withdraw a certain amount of cash from a list of common amounts—such as $40, $60, or $100. A regular withdrawal allows you to type an exact amount of cash to withdraw.

To use an ATM, you typically insert your bank cards and follow the prompts to withdraw cash, which is dispensed through a slot. ATMs require you to use a plastic card—either a bank debit card or a credit card—to complete a transaction. Your identity is authenticated by a PIN before any transaction can be made.

Select a transaction: withdrawal, deposit, balance inquiry, transfer or payment. Options will vary based on your bank. Follow the prompts on the ATM screen. Take your cash, receipt and card from the machine when you're done.
