Customers choose a location and a time they want to use the ATM, and an electric-powered BMW pulls up with one of the machines fitted into a hole where one of the rear windows usually goes. 

 

The Idea Bank, which is running the fleet of cars, says the service is currently limited to business customers who want to deposit large amounts of money at the end of a working day. 

 

Rather than walking with the cash to a machine, often at night, customers will now be able to make a deposit from outside their home or office. 

 

Dominik Fajbusiewicz, a board member of Idea Bank, said: 'Entrepreneurs who personally deliver their income to the bank or a stationary¹ CDM waste both their time and money.

 

'Our service aims at lifting that weight off their shoulders.' 

 

The bank said a survey of its members found that up to 80 per cent of them made bank deposits at the end of the day, many of them after dark. 

 

On average, including walking times, these deposits took a little over an hour, so in order to make life simpler for them, the bank developed its new service. 

 

While the fleet of cars is currently only available in Warsaw, the company is taking suggestions for the next city they should offer it in.
