The new machines will allow the bank to offer services under the new Punt Groc cashpoint model for cards, mobile phones and wearable devices.

The machines will feature automatic banknote recognition and recycling units.

In addition, they will improve cash availability at the cashpoints and streamline the manual paper money loading process, the company said.

The machines are fitted with support tools such as sign language, high-contrast screens, large-sized text and buttons, a screen reader and keyboard browsing to enhance user experience, especially for disabled people.

Caxiabank said: "The software installed in CaixaBank’s Punt Groc machines enables the menu of services that appears at the start of a transaction to be fully customised.

"Users can choose between more than 250 different transactions, all displayed through a style book based on the latest design and usability preferences.

"This suite of services was installed across the entire network during the first quarter of 2014."

Deployment of the machines will begin this year and spread through 2024. Fujitsu has begun the production of the machines at its facility in Malaga.

The companies will also work together to make innovations in the cashpoint technologies.
