## Abstract

Arrangements relate to processing financial transactions on an automated teller machine (ATM). An ATM identifier can be presented on a display of the ATM. An ATM identifier confirmation can be received from a mobile computing device. Responsive to determining that the ATM identifier confirmation matches the identifier presented on the display of the ATM, a customer authentication or a transaction request can be received from the mobile computing device. Responsive to verifying the customer authentication or the transaction request, the transaction request can be processed.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A computer-implemented method of conducting, by a mobile computing device, a financial transaction on an automated teller machine (ATM), comprising:
receiving, by the mobile computing device and from a display of the ATM, an ATM identifier;
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and to the ATM, an ATM identifier confirmation; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and responsive to a determination that the ATM identifier confirmation matches the identifier presented on the display of the ATM, a customer authentication or a transaction request, wherein
the ATM processes the transaction request responsive to verifying the customer authentication or the transaction request.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein
the ATM identifier is an image, and
the mobile computing device presents a plurality of images on a display of the mobile computing device, and
one of the plurality of images is substantially identical to the image on the display of the ATM.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein
the identifier is an alphanumeric sequence.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein
the transaction request is a withdrawal of a specified amount of cash from an account, and
the processing the transaction request includes dispensing the specified amount of cash from the ATM.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein
the mobile computing device provides an indication that the mobile computer device is located within a predetermined distance from the ATM, and
the ATM identifier is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to receiving the indication.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The computer-implemented method of claim 5, wherein
the ATM identified is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to a determination that the ATM is available for use.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein
the ATM identifier confirmation is sent from the mobile computing device over a Bluetooth low energy communication network.

### Claim 8

A mobile device configured to a financial transaction on an automated teller machine (ATM), comprising:
a hardware processor configured to initiate the following executable operations:
receiving, by the mobile computing device and from a display of the ATM, an ATM identifier;
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and to the ATM, an ATM identifier confirmation; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and responsive to a determination that the ATM identifier confirmation matches the identifier presented on the display of the ATM, a customer authentication or a transaction request, wherein
the ATM processes the transaction request responsive to verifying the customer authentication or the transaction request.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The mobile device of claim 8, wherein
the ATM identifier is an image, and
the mobile computing device presents a plurality of images on a display of the mobile computing device, and
one of the plurality of images is substantially identical to the image on the display of the ATM.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The mobile device of claim 8, wherein
the identifier is an alphanumeric sequence.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The mobile device of claim 8, wherein
the transaction request is a withdrawal of a specified amount of cash from an account, and
the processing the transaction request includes dispensing the specified amount of cash from the ATM.

### Claim 12 (depends on 8)

The mobile device of claim 8, wherein
the mobile computing device provides an indication that the mobile computer device is located within a predetermined distance from the ATM, and
the ATM identifier is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to receiving the indication.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The mobile device of claim 12, wherein
the ATM identified is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to a determination that the ATM is available for use.

### Claim 14 (depends on 8)

The mobile device of claim 8, wherein
the ATM identifier confirmation is sent from the mobile computing device over a Bluetooth low energy communication network.

### Claim 15

A computer program product, comprising:
a hardware storage device having stored therein program code for conducting, by a mobile computing device, a financial transaction on an automated teller machine (ATM),
the program instructions, which when executed by the mobile computing device, cause the mobile computing device to perform:
receiving, by the mobile computing device and from a display of the ATM, an ATM identifier;
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and to the ATM, an ATM identifier confirmation; and
transmitting, by the mobile computing device and responsive to a determination that the ATM identifier confirmation matches the identifier presented on the display of
the ATM, a customer authentication or a transaction request, wherein
the ATM processes the transaction request responsive to verifying the customer authentication or the transaction request.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The computer program product of claim 15, wherein
the ATM identifier is an image, and
the mobile computing device presents a plurality of images on a display of the mobile computing device, and
one of the plurality of images is substantially identical to the image on the display of the ATM.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The computer program product of claim 15, wherein
the identifier is an alphanumeric sequence.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The computer program product of claim 15, wherein
the transaction request is a withdrawal of a specified amount of cash from an account, and
the processing the transaction request includes dispensing the specified amount of cash from the ATM.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

The computer program product of claim 15, wherein
the mobile computing device provides an indication that the mobile computer device is located within a predetermined distance from the ATM, and
the ATM identifier is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to receiving the indication.

### Claim 20 (depends on 19)

The computer program product of claim 19, wherein
the ATM identified is presented on the display of the ATM responsive to a determination that the ATM is available for use.
