Piraeus Migrates Majority of its ATM Network to Diebold Nixdorf’s DN Series® Cash Recyclers
Cash recycling technology streamlines operations, reduces costs and improves the sustainability of the bank’s ATM fleet.
NORTH CANTON, Ohio, Oct. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Diebold Nixdorf (NYSE: DBD), a world leader in transforming the way people bank and shop, today announced a pivotal development in its long-standing partnership with Piraeus, a Greek multinational financial services company. By the end of 2024, Piraeus will have replaced its fleet of more than 1,200 self-service devices located inside the bank’s branches with DN Series® cash recycling ATMs. The ATMs will provide Piraeus customers the ability to conveniently manage their cash while giving the bank a proven platform to move many transactions from inside the branch to the self-service channel in support of its branch transformation program.
In 2021, Piraeus was the first financial institution in Greece to widely adopt automated cash recycling by deploying more than 300 DN Series ATMs. The innovative bank is committed to providing the highest level of customer experience and chose to further invest in the technology by purchasing an additional 928 DN Series ATMs since 2021, including nearly 400 units in 2024. Adopting the trends and demands of banking, the bank will now also offer customers NFC payment capability across its entire fleet, which enables contactless payments.
Cash recycling reduces the bank’s cash management costs by accepting, storing, and recirculating cash deposited in the ATM. Creating a closed-loop recycling environment that automatically moves money through the system provides the additional advantages of extending cash-in-transit (CIT) intervals and drastically reducing carbon emissions throughout the ATMs’ lifespan.
Piraeus, a financial institution deeply sensitive to providing accessible services for customers of various abilities, chose DN Series after highly evaluating its design. Diebold Nixdorf developed its DN Series ATMs with accessibility as an integral part of the design process.
The DN Series ATMs are powered by DN AllConnectSM Data Engine, which leverages the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to maximize fleet performance and availability. By analyzing data patterns, trends and leading indicators, DN AllConnect Data Engine can identify an impending failure, triggering a proactive service call to avoid a future outage. This helps decrease the number of incidents, shorten resolution time and guarantee market-leading availability. In addition, DN Series includes enhanced security features to protect from traditional and emerging physical and cyber threats.
Harry Margaritis, group chief operating officer at Piraeus, said: “We are committed to continuously improving the experience we offer to our customers. By adopting a proven cash recycling technology across all our branches, we aim to offer a higher service level to our customers while at the same time improving operational efficiency.”
Joe Myers, executive vice president of Global Banking at Diebold Nixdorf, said: “In today’s banking environment, it’s critical for financial institutions to reduce costs while expanding their offerings for customers. We’re thrilled that every Piraeus branch across Greece will be equipped with DN Series ATMs, providing customers with the latest in cash recycling technology. Our continued partnership with Piraeus further reinforces that frictionless physical and digital experiences should be of paramount importance to financial institutions and their customers across the globe.”

BOSTON, Jan. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — oneZero, a global leader in multi-asset enterprise trading technology solutions, is kicking off 2025 with the announcement of a new brand campaign “Driving Innovation”, complemented by the sponsorship of Alexa Pano, a rising star in the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). This partnership reflects oneZero’s commitment to fostering a culture of resilience, progress and innovation. oneZero’s focus on “Driving Innovation” has been showcased in the recent transformative investment in oneZero by Golden Gate Capital, a series of industry recognized disruptive capabilities for banks and institutional brokers, and a set of 2025 innovations highlighted by oneZero’s CEO at the end of 2024.
Hailing from Westborough, Massachusetts, near oneZero’s Boston based headquarters, Alexa Pano exemplifies the values that resonate deeply with oneZero: determination, hard work and innovation. As a young athlete making waves in professional golf, Alexa’s journey aligns with oneZero’s mission to drive innovation in the financial markets and redefine what’s possible.
oneZero selected Alexa Pano for her influential presence in the LPGA, aligning with the company’s dedication to empowering women and promoting gender equality, as well as the desire to advance the brand through sport, in an industry that historically underemphasizes the momentum of programs such as the LPGA.
“This partnership with Alexa Pano represents more than just support for a promising athlete; it’s a celebration of innovation and breaking boundaries,” said Andrew Ralich, CEO and co-founder of oneZero. “Alexa’s determination on the course mirrors oneZero’s resolve to revolutionize financial technology,” added Andrew Ralich.
Alexa Pano expressed her enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “I’m thrilled to partner with oneZero, a company that values hard work and innovation as much as I do. Their support not only fuels my journey on the LPGA Tour but also highlights the importance of empowering women in sports and beyond. I’m excited to work with oneZero to inspire others and make an impact together.”
Engaging both employees and clients through sport has been an integral part of oneZero’s culture since the firm’s inception. As part of the sponsorship, Alexa will engage in oneZero-hosted golf events, including their flagship golf event in Miami next month, as well as oneZero’s participation in the annual Big Brothers Big Sisters Golf for Kids golf outing, a charity that oneZero management has remained engaged with for many years. Alexa will feature the oneZero logo on her apparel at these events and while on tour.
oneZero’s recent investment from Golden Gate Capital, announced in November 2024, is accelerating oneZero’s organic growth and M&A strategy. This is enabling oneZero to further expand its innovative technology solutions and strengthen its position as a leading technology partner in the global OTC trading market.
“We are excited to showcase more examples in the coming months of how our organization, alongside Alexa, will continue to “drive innovation” in 2025!” added Andrew Ralich.

“Recognizing the dual challenges faced by NRIs in managing professional lives abroad and ensuring the well-being of their families in India, the NRI Care Program bridges this critical gap.
