Dar es Salaam. Customers of the National Bank of Commerce Limited (NBC) in the commercial capital Dar es Salaam will no longer necessarily queue in the bank for depositing cash, thanks to the launched deposit taking Automated Teller Machines (ATMs).

The four machines which accept up to Sh1.5 million from one person are located in some areas of the city and the bank plans to roll them out throughout the country come 2015.

 The bank said in a statement that introduction of the deposits taking ATMs reaffirms NBC’s ambition of offering real-time alternative cash transaction solutions for customers.

CRDB Bank has already in place a similar service called Easy Deposit ATMs in the city.

“The introduction of these ATMs will ensure that our customers enjoy the convenience of being able to deposit cash through our network of deposit taking ATMs,” said Raymond Mutagahywa, NBC’s head of digital and alternative channels
