receiving, by the transaction machine via the cash deposit mechanism, the cash deposit;

scanning, by the transaction machine, at least one bill of the cash deposit to determine a denomination of the at least one bill;

determining, by the transaction machine and based on scanning the at least one bill, a sequence of user interfaces to be displayed on a display of the transaction machine; and

providing, by the transaction machine using the determined sequence, a deposit user interface that displays deposit information based on the at least one bill.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying, via the deposit user interface, a progress of the scanning of the at least one bill.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

scanning, by the transaction machine, a plurality of bills of the cash deposit;

identifying, by the transaction machine, at least one denomination of the plurality of bills;

determining, by the transaction machine, a number of bills associated with the at least one denomination of the plurality of bills;

counting, by the transaction machine, a total amount of the cash deposit; and

displaying, by the transaction machine via the deposit user interface, at least one of a list of the at least one denomination of the plurality of bills, the number of bills associated with each of the at least one denomination of the plurality of bills, or the total amount of the cash deposit.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

providing, by the transaction machine via the deposit user interface, a total amount of the cash deposit.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, by a provider computing system associated with the transaction machine, a passcode unique to the request from the payor;

transmitting, by the provider computing system, the generated passcode;

receiving, by the transaction machine from the provider computing system communicably coupled to the transaction machine, the generated passcode; and

determining, by the transaction machine, that the passcode input received via the passcode user interface matches the generated passcode received from the provider computing system.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

verifying, by the transaction machine based on receiving the amount input, that an amount associated with the amount input does not exceed a threshold value.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, by a provider computing system associated with the transaction machine, a passcode unique to the request from the payor, wherein the generated passcode is generated based on a request received from an individual account holder.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the provider computing system, the generated passcode to the payor via at least one of a text message or an email.

9. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the provider computing system, the generated passcode to the payee via at least one of a text message, an email, or an account webpage of the payee.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the transaction machine to a provider computing system, a payment notification message including a payment amount and the passcode input.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the payor does not hold an account with a provider associated with the transaction machine.

12. A system comprising:

a transaction machine comprising one or more processors and a computer readable storage medium storing instructions that when executed cause the transaction machine to perform transaction machine operations comprising:

receiving, via a payment user interface, a request from a payor for a transaction to make a payment to a payee;

providing a passcode user interface that allows receipt of a passcode input;

receiving, via the passcode user interface, the passcode input;
