  • Patent number: 7577614
    Abstract: An automated banking machine system and method includes ATMs which accept checks and dispense cash to users. The ATMs are operated to acquire image and magnetic data from deposited checks to determine the genuineness of checks and the authority of a user to receive cash for such checks. Cash is then dispensed to the user from the ATM in exchange for the deposited check. The ATMs dispense cash responsive to communications with a transaction host. The transaction host provides transaction identifying data to the ATM. The ATM sends the transaction identifying data and check images to an image and transaction data server for processing.

  • Patent number: 7314163
    Abstract: An automated banking machine system includes ATMs that can accept checks. Cash may be dispensed from an ATM to the user in exchange for a check. Cancellation indicia can be marked on the check by the ATM. The ATM can acquire image data and magnetic data from a received check to determine the genuineness of the check and the authority of the user to cash the check. A check imaging device of the ATM can generate a digital image of a received check. The check image data can be stored in correlated relation with the related transaction data. The ATM can also modify the check image data to produce a modified check image that excludes sensitive check information, such as the user's account number in the micr line. The ATM can then print this modified check image on the user's transaction receipt.

  • Patent number: 7284695
    Abstract: An automated banking machine system and method includes ATMs which accept checks and dispense cash to users. The ATMs are operated to acquire image and magnetic data from deposited checks to determine the authority of a user to receive cash for such checks. The authority of the user is determined based on the user being associated in a data store with the maker of the check. The check cannot exceed certain programmed thresholds or be presented earlier than the expiration of a delay period from when a prior check from the same maker is presented. In exchange for acceptable checks cash is dispensed to the user from the ATM in exchange for the deposited check.
