It signed up with major U.S. ATM network Allpoint, continued using another, MoneyPass, and now retail customers can access their money, fee-free, at 64,000 machines in assorted stores across the country with a Citi smartphone locator app. Before Citi fully-embraced that strategy though, it asked customers what they most wanted from a bank that they could not get from smartphones, which customers are increasingly using for payments, checking balances and making deposits.
