An arrangement for dispensing bank notes includes card reader (15), first keyboard (11) and second keyboard (12). The card reader, the two keyboards and the requisite electronics are incorporated in a control panel (10) which is common to a cash dispenser (1) and to a goods vending machine (19) and which is intended for the initiation of a process for dispensing bank notes from the cash dispenser and/or a process for the purchase of goods from the vending machine. A third keyboard (13) having at least two buttons (131,-132) is provided for the initiation of the bank-note dispensing process or the goods vending process, wherein depression of a first button (131) of the two buttons will cause the first keyboard (11) to show different numbers of bank notes or bank-note values on the buttons of the keyboard, whereas depression of a second button (132) will cause the keyboard (11) to show on the buttons thereof different qualities of goods.
