Goznak has laid the groundwork for digital ruble conversion support in ATM modules

Russian ATMs may in the future be able to dispense cash upon conversion of digital rubles. The banknote recycling module being developed by Goznak initially provides for compatibility with such operations, if ATMs receive the corresponding function.

Goznak reported that the development is designed for use in various ATMs, including those that will in the future be able to convert digital rubles into cash.

However, this is not yet about launching such an operation in ordinary ATMs. Goznak speaks of the technical compatibility of its module with a possible future scenario.

Official data from the Bank of Russia shows that as of July 1, 2026, there were 117 thousand ATMs with cash dispensing in the country, of which 99.6 thousand were recycling devices.
