1. A goods/information distribution method by an ATM, Automated Teller Machine, terminal (TE1) operationally associated with a plurality of banks (PB), said method including steps of:
- supplying (INVM1, CNFP, CLCDB, INVSC, INVM2), on behalf of a bank (B1) of said plurality (PB), an identification code (CDB) to a first mobile communication terminal (TM1) associated with a first user (U1), said code (CDB) being representative of a plurality of attributes (PAT) indicative of the distribution of goods/information;
visualizing (VISM2), on a display with which the first mobile terminal (TM1) is equipped, said identification code (CDB);
placing (M2LTC), on behalf of the first user (U1), said first mobile terminal (TM1) close to an identification code optical reading device (LTC) with which the ATM terminal (TE1) is equipped;
acquiring (AQCDB), on behalf of the ATM terminal (TE1), said identification code;
recognizing (CHKTSF), at the ATM terminal (TE1) said identification code;
making the goods/information available (RNDERG) to the first user, on behalf of the ATM terminal.

Abstract
A goods/information distribution method by ATM terminal (TE1) operationally associated with a plurality of banks is described, said method including steps of:
- supplying, on behalf of a bank (B1) of said plurality, an identification code (CDB) to a first mobile communication terminal (TM1) associated with a first user (U1), said code (CDB) being representative of a plurality of attributes (PAT) indicative of the distribution of goods/information;
- visualising, on a display with which the first mobile terminal (TM1) is equipped, said identification code (CDB);
- placing, on behalf of the first user (U1), said first mobile terminal (TM1) close to an identification code optical reading device (LTC) with which the ATM terminal (TE1) is equipped;
- acquiring, on behalf of the ATM terminal (TE1), said identification code;
- recognising said identification code;
- making said goods/information available to said first user, on behalf of said ATM terminal.
