At many banks like OTP Kalignite is supporting multiple languages on individual ATMs. In addition to the three languages at OTP, Kalignite software is operating at banks around the world using Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, Italian, Spanish, Norwegian, Polish, Thai, and many, many other languages. </p><p> KAL's Hungarian partner supporting the OTP project is <a href="http://www.monicomp.hu/index_en.html">Monicomp</a>.
