1. A method of utilizing a currency-management system that comprises a plurality of currency dispensers, the method performed using a processor executing instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a user device and by the processor, a request for an interaction with a currency dispenser;
identifying, by the processor, one or more currency dispensers, of the plurality of currency dispensers, to perform the interaction;
determining, by the processor, one or more conditions of the one or more currency dispensers;
generating, in response to the determination of the one or more conditions and by the processor, one or more incentives to induce a user associated with a device to perform the interaction with the one or more currency dispensers based on the one or more conditions;
sending, to the user device and by the processor, information that identifies the one or more currency dispensers and the one or more incentives;
receiving, from the user device and by the processor, a selection of a currency dispenser among the one or more currency dispensers to perform the interaction;
displaying, on the user device, a map that identifies the currency dispenser based on the selection; and
displaying an image, on the user device, of the currency dispenser based on the selection.

27. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon executed by a processor to:
-
receive, from a user device, a request for an interaction with a currency dispenser; receive an indication of an expected travel route for a user associated with the user device; identify at least one currency dispenser, among a plurality of currency dispensers, to perform the interaction, wherein the step of identifying the at least one currency dispenser is based at least in part on the expected travel route of the user; send, to the user device, information that identifies the at least one currency dispenser; display, via the user device, a map that identifies the at least one currency dispenser, wherein the at least one currency dispenser is color-coded in the map, and wherein the color-coding relates to a condition of the currency dispenser; and receive, from the user device, a selection of a currency dispenser of the at least one currency dispenser. - View Dependent Claims (28)

29. A network-based method of utilizing a currency-management system that comprises a plurality of currency dispensers, the method performed using a processor executing instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from a user device and by the processor, a request for an interaction with a currency dispenser, wherein the request for an interaction is generated based on an event that is indicated in a calendar utilized by the user device; receiving, by the processor, an indication of an expected travel route for a user associated with the user device; identifying, by the processor, at least one currency dispenser, of the plurality of currency dispensers, to perform the interaction, wherein the identification is based at least in part on the expected travel route of the user; sending, to the user device and by the processor, information that identifies the at least one currency dispenser; receiving, from the user device and by the processor, a selection of a currency dispenser from the at least one currency dispenser; and displaying, using the user device, a map that identifies the at least one currency dispenser, wherein the at least one currency dispenser is color-coded in the map, and wherein the color-coding relates to a condition of the currency dispenser.
