Front-end cash handling equipment
The retail system for security banking and cash management starts with equipment for handling money at the point of purchase. A variety of lockable cash drawers are available with compartments for holding cash, coins, checks, and credit card receipts. Many drawers connect to point-of-sale terminals for recording purchase transactions. Some drawers contain media slots for inserting paper coupons, receipts, and checks, so the drawer doesn’t have to open for noncash transactions. Before putting end-of-the-day revenue into cash bags, retailers may also protect themselves during cash exchanges by using counterfeit detector items, including marking pens that leave a distinct coloration on real bills and ultraviolet light pens and detectors that show a bill’s security thread in a specific color.
Equipment for tallying up and organizing cash and coin
Retailers can reconcile their end-of-the-day money intake by using digital cash counting machines — some with built-in counterfeit detectors — that display cash tallies on LED screens. Some counters can also sort cash into separate denominations. Cash bands are available for bundling currency in denomination stacks for deposit. Coin sorter machines are also available for arranging hard change into bin trays. From there, retailers can insert coins into sorting tubes and slip coin wraps over the tubes to bundle them into denominated amounts.
Equipment for storing money before deposit
Retailers rely on safes to store revenue until deposit day. Steel security or strong boxes are available to house and organize each day’s take during the week, for storage inside the safe. The boxes have removable or fixed cantilevered trays for housing money and paper, and some have convenient carrying handles. They have different locking arrangements, including pin-tumbler and key locks.
Cash deposit bags for the final step in money security
Carryalls for transporting cash and coin for bank deposit are available as zippered pouches, some with pin-tumbler or cam-lock closures and as polyethylene tamper-evident money bags. Some money bags are disposable after deposit. The bags come with bar codes and tracking numbers that provide a security interface with banks.
