Embodiments of the invention have been particularly developed for providing a kiosk device that is configured to interact with a user thereby to make a determination as to whether or not a loan is to be granted, and to dispense that loan in a transactable form (for example as cash, or in the form of a prepaid debit card). While some embodiments will be described herein with particular reference to that application, it will be appreciated that the invention is not limited to such a field of use, and is applicable in broader contexts.
