A cash dispensing mechanism of an automated teller machine (ATM) includes a safe inside which are housed first and second units. The first unit includes currency cassettes and an associated pick mechanism. Bills are transported from the pick mechanism to a bill validator included in the first unit. If a bill is rejected then a divert gate directs it into a purge bin also included in the first unit. The second unit is mounted on the first unit with a selected orientation relative to said first unit dependent on whether the cash dispensing mechanism has a front loading or a rear loading configuration. Bills accepted by the validator are transported upwardly out of the first unit and into the second unit via a single transfer station, regardless of whether the cash dispensing mechanism has a front or rear loading configuration. The second unit stacks bills received from the first unit into a bunch and transports the bunch to a bill dispensing port of the safe.
