In an exciting first for the ATM industry, KAL is delighted to announce that we are publishing a new, free and open source implementation of XFS4IoT, the revolutionary XFS version 4 global standard that has the potential to transform the ATM world.

The new standard for ATM software is ready for the IoT era and paves the way for cloud-based, secure, OS-agnostic ATMs.

KAL’s pioneering XFS4IoT SP Dev framework will enable hardware manufacturers to quickly create XFS4IoT SPs and offers numerous benefits. As well as being OS-agnostic, it works with hardware from multiple vendors, providing banks with greater choice, enhanced security, plug-and-play hardware and lower costs.

The collaborative open‑source workgroup for hardware and software vendors, test software suppliers and application developers has already attracted 70+ companies and 200+ ATM stakeholders. The purpose of the workgroup is to jumpstart migration to XFS4IoT and create an open‑source SP‑Dev framework that will be freely available to everyone.
