Tranax / Hantle
ATM Machines – Discontinued
🏦 Tranax (later rebranded as Hantle) first entered the U.S. ATM market in 1998. Originally launched by Cross Technologies in partnership with South Korea’s Hyosung, Tranax quickly grew in popularity. By 1999, the company had sold thousands of units, including the widely used Mini-Bank 1000.
📦 In 2008, Tranax was acquired by Hantle Systems, and by 201,0 the brand officially became Hantle USA. For years, the Hantle 1700W in particular was a go-to budget-friendly ATM for small businesses.
🚫 Today, however, Hantle is out of business. No new units are being manufactured, and parts and service support are no longer available. These ATMs cannot be operated in compliance with current U.S. standards.
