  • Publication number: 20180114222
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to interaction among an entity, an entity's mobile device, one or more Automated Teller Machines (ATM's), an associated beacon generator, and a support computing system. With some embodiments, the beacon generator generates a beacon signal to the mobile device. The mobile device extracts beacon information such as an identification of the beacon generator and/or associated ATM and conveys this information to the support computing system via a second wireless channel. The support computing system subsequently instructs the ATM to transition to an appropriate display container as the entity approaches the ATM. The ATM may further transition to different display containers based on interactions with the entity and/or support computing system.
