Bank of Ireland investment in ATM network to boost reliability, accessibility and sustainability.
Bank of Ireland will install more than 200 new ATMs across its branch network this year as part of a €60 million programme to renew its entire fleet.
The upgrade, which began in 2025, is the bank’s most significant investment in cash machines in over ten years.
“This is our largest single investment in ATMs in more than a decade and will ensure customers in every county benefit from the most modern and efficient machines”
The initiative has already delivered 168 new ATMs in 46 branches from Donegal to Wexford. In total, around 650 machines will be replaced across every branch on the island of Ireland.
Improved accessibility
The new devices offer greater cash processing capacity and cut energy consumption by more than half. They support both withdrawals and lodgements, with most units able to recycle cash deposited for subsequent withdrawals. Accessibility features include high-contrast screens and earphone sockets for audio guidance, designed to assist customers with visual impairments.
Alan Durcan, director of Distribution Channels at Bank of Ireland, said the upgrade reflects a commitment to modernisation and sustainability.
“This is our largest single investment in ATMs in more than a decade and will ensure customers in every county benefit from the most modern and efficient machines,” he said. “The new ATMs support our sustainability ambitions through lower energy use, while also delivering better reliability and improved accessibility for day-to-day banking.”
Durcan added that the programme is on track to complete its next phase by year-end, with more than 200 additional ATMs installed. “We look forward to even more customers benefiting from the enhanced services they provide,” he said.
