Editing Escrow (section)

===Banking===
Escrow is used in the field of automatic banking and vending equipment. One example is [[automated teller machine]]s (ATMs), and is the function which allows the machine to hold the money deposited by the customer separately, and in case he or she challenges the counting result, the money is returned. Another example is a [[vending machine]], where the customer's money is held in a separate escrow area pending successful completion of the transaction. If a problem occurs and the customer presses the refund button, the coins are returned from escrow; if no problem occurs, they fall into the coin vault of the machine.<ref>[http://www.vendingtimes.com/ME2/dirmod.asp?sid=&nm=&type=Publishing&mod=Publications%3A%3AArticle&mid=8F3A7027421841978F18BE895F87F791&tier=4&id=43736AA44A6840059F9B258F4E620E3F Up and Running] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070806112433/http://www.vendingtimes.com/ME2/dirmod.asp?sid=&nm=&type=Publishing&mod=Publications%3A%3AArticle&mid=8F3A7027421841978F18BE895F87F791&tier=4&id=43736AA44A6840059F9B258F4E620E3F |date=2007-08-06 }}, Tim Sanford, [[Vending Times]], August 2005.</ref>
