The introduction of Logika's Kiosk in the Japanese banking system is set to bring a real revolution in the issuing of credit and cash cards. These automatic machines, which are installed at each bank's branch office, can be used by customers without the help of the bank's staff to obtain credit or cash cards in real time, to renew expiring ones as well as to perform those operations which can be normally performed at ATM cash-points, e.g. withdrawal of money, printing out of balance and cash movements.
