BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 12, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allpoint Network, a Cardtronics, Inc. affiliate (Nasdaq:CATM), and operator of the largest surcharge-free ATM network, today announced Canada as the latest international addition to an emerging global presence now spanning the United States, Australia, Mexico, Puerto Rico and the United Kingdom.
Effective immediately, 7-Eleven Canada stores—470-plus total locations—host surcharge-free Allpoint Network ATMs, welcoming cardholders of participating Allpoint-member financial institutions 24/7. Cardholders looking for the nearest Allpoint ATM, including the new locations in Canada, can do so with their smartphone using the free Allpoint Network ATM locator app.
"Consumers have spoken—when it comes to surcharge-free ATMs, the more locations, the better," said Ben Psillas, president, Allpoint Network. "With this expansion into Canada, Allpoint clearly demonstrates its commitment to continually expanding the size and reach of our surcharge-free ATM network, and in so doing help participating Allpoint-member financial institutions meet that consumer demand."
Earlier this year, 7-Eleven named Cardtronics its exclusive ATM service provider in Canada. Those Cardtronics-owned, 7-Eleven-located ATMs now facilitate Allpoint Network's international growth into Canada.
