An automated teller machine provided with a plurality of input means and a corresponding method for conducting transactions using this machine. In the machine, a touch sensor for producing a signal when a user touches a previously registered area with a finger and a character recognition sensor for recognizing characters drawn on another previously registered area are superposed on a display. The sensor to be operated is selected in accordance with input data, the kind of transaction and/or user's preference. Thus, the data can be input in a manner which provides the easiest and most efficient mode of use for the user.
