MegaLink is also known for its belief in universal sharing with the motto of "The Card for All."[citation needed]
By late January 2015, MegaLink and BancNet had announced their merger.[1] BancNet is the sole surviving entity, while MegaLink has been re-purposed.[2] MegaLink now lists itself as a BancNet member, under the independent ATM deployer category.[3]
Following the repurposing, MegaLink and its assets were sold to the Japanese conglomerate Hitachi, of which MegaLink is now a subsidiary.
