TYME ("Take Your Money Everywhere") is an ATM/interbank network in Florida, Wisconsin, and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was one of the first shared EFT networks in the country.[1][2]

Residents commonly referred to ATMs as a "TYME machine", which resulted in confusion when Wisconsinites visiting unfamiliar areas would ask the locals where they could find a "time machine".[3]

History

In 1975, the TYME network was created by an agreement among First Wisconsin National Bank, Marshall & Ilsley, Marine Bank of Milwaukee, and Midland National Bank.[1]

In 2002, the TYME network merged with the Pulse network,[4][5][6] taking the Pulse brand name in 2004 and retiring the old TYME identity.[citation needed]

As of the 2010s, the combined Pulse/TYME network included about 81,000 ATMs and 457,000 merchant point-of-sale locations.[citation needed] For the purposes of familiarity, some bank locations retained the former slot for the TYME signage and use a replacement slide with "ATM" rendered in the Neil Bold font used by TYME.[7]

In 2022, Wisconsin-based Landmark Credit Union convinced Pulse to allow the use of the old TYME logo and brand identity for marketing their next-generation ATM machines.[8]
