An ATM processing system (50) is comprised of a server computing system (56) and a coordination server application (54) operative in the server computing system. The coordination server application is operative to receive processing jobs (64) from job submitting entities (60). The coordination server is further operative to divide each processing jobs into a plurality of tasks which are distributed among a plurality of ATMs (56). Each ATM is operative to perform transaction functions such as the dispensing of cash from a cash dispenser (20). Each ATM includes at least one computer processor (100) and at least one processing client application (102) operative in the at least one computer processor. Each processing client application is operative to receive the tasks from the coordination server application and cause the at least one computer processor of each ATM to process the tasks during periods when the ATM is idle.
