Abstract
A system includes an ATM-related processor configured to detect a vehicle approach. The processor is also configured to wirelessly connect to a vehicle computing system (VCS). The processor is additionally configured to validate a vehicle as a present-vehicle. Also, the processor is configured to receive account and vehicle identifying information. The processor is also configured to validate an account as authorized for a transaction in conjunction with the vehicle. The processor is further configured to provide transaction services to the vehicle over the wireless connection, such that the user can interact with an ATM through use of an in-vehicle display.
