Community Bankers of Wisconsin in affiliation with PULSE, have developed a statewide non-surcharge automated teller machine (ATM) network for customers of participating Wisconsin community banks.

The name of this network is "ATM Acce$$. The development of "ATM Acce$$" does not replace the PULSE network. "ATM Acce$$" can be considered a "network within a network". "ATM Acce$$" is the name of the network with "ACCESS" being an acronym for Access Cash Conveniently Eliminating Surcharges Statewide.

Since the introduction of the ATM, consumers have come to depend on the convenience of withdrawing cash, making deposits or verifying account balances 24-hours a day, seven days a week. Since the national ATM networks lifted the prohibition on ATM surcharges, the number of ATMs imposing surcharges has dramatically increased. In response to the growing trend of surcharges, Community Bankers of Wisconsin developed a non-surcharge network.

Community banks are committed to serving the financial needs of Wisconsin consumers.
