InnBucks is expanding its ATM network in Zimbabwe after securing Zimswitch interoperability certification. Holders of compatible bank cards will be able to withdraw cash from InnBucks ATMs, extending access beyond the company’s digital wallet ecosystem, 263Chat reports.

InnBucks is expanding its ATM network across Zimbabwe after receiving Zimswitch interoperability certification. Holders of participating Zimswitch bank cards can now withdraw cash from InnBucks ATMs, according to 263Chat.

The nationwide rollout follows a pilot phase that the company described as successful. It allows customers to access an additional withdrawal network beyond their own bank’s, extending access beyond users of the InnBucks digital wallet.

InnBucks plans to install its ATMs in busy, easily accessible locations. Fees and withdrawal limits depend on the card-issuing bank and the applicable terms of service.

The company says the pilot phase allowed it to test and refine the service before expanding it. The system relies on compatibility with the Zimswitch network, which enables payment systems at different institutions to process transactions with one another.
