Japanese bank puts the 'fun' into 'funds'

Via The BBC.

Injecting excitement into the faintly dreary business of using a cash machine may seem a tall order, but one Japanese bank is trying its best.

Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank is introducing fruitmachine-style games of chance which run while the ATM processes its more mundane transactions.

Get three sevens, and your withdrawal fee is waived; three golds promise a jackpot of 1,000 yen (£5; $9).

The purpose of the gimmick, says the bank's Yoshi Enami, is simply "fun".
