# AK Vienna Tests Third-Party ATMs for Fees

November 9, 2026 at 05:56 PM

> A study by Arbeiterkammer Wien reveals IC Cash withdrawal fees and criticizes poor labeling and transparency among third-party ATM providers.

The Arbeiterkammer Wien recently tested 29 third-party ATMs in Vienna from providers IC Cash, Euronet, Telecash, and PSA. The study found that IC Cash charges a 2.50 euro fee per withdrawal, while others remain free. However, fee notices were often brief.

Euronet limits transactions to 200 euros and its machines are often difficult to identify. While PSA, Telecash, and IC Cash offer functional online location searches, Euronet's search is nearly impossible. Receipts were provided in only one of eight tests.

With 63 percent of Austrians using cash regularly, the AK demands better labeling and mandatory cash acceptance at shops. As bank closures create network gaps, the AK calls for a guaranteed nationwide cash supply and transparent operator location lists.
