Using cash handling equipment offers many benefits which include cost savings, streamlined operations, and increased security. Not only do these benefit the business owner and employees but also their customers. By streamlining services, employees are more confident dealing with cash and change amounts and fewer instances of requesting a manager to replenish the drawer’s cash totals. Customers won’t be delayed due to manual cash-handling demands on employees, and more registers can remain open once coupled with cash dispensers. With one customer already serviced, the next in line will get to the front quicker. The entire transaction will be faster and more efficient, which is a substantial benefit for every customer.
Cash handling equipment also improves security for both customers and the employees. The business is less of a target to thieves. There will be less exposed cash, reducing the potential takeaway for would-be criminals. It also grants employees the ability to focus on one transaction at a time, so they are alert and vigilant. Employees will also be less prone to mistakes and have more control over the process.
Customers desire rapid service and a seamless transaction process to a secure point of sale, and automated cash handling can provide that especially in these industries:
Banking and Credit Unions
Financial institutions, like banks and credit unions, rely heavily on advanced cash solutions more than any other industry. Imagine walking into a bank that is only using money handling machines from the 1980s or 1990s—it would be so inefficient. Banks, more than any establishment, need to keep up with the changing times and stay ahead of the game when it comes to innovation. Thanks to significant technological breakthroughs, there are dozens of new devices and services that banks and credit unions can now offer that never existed in the past. Although the majority of banking is still done in person, customers can do plenty of their banking remotely thanks to online banking and quick lodge machines.
Retail
The retail industry relies heavily on cash handling systems as well. Not only do they need all their money accounted for, it needs to be secure throughout the day to prevent theft. Automating cash handling provides an immediate benefit to consumers in the retail environment. Customers receive better service when employees are able to focus on the personal interactions instead of the time-consuming processes, ranging from the customer transaction and point of sale to the emptying of registers, the storage of cash in an office safe and the transportation to and from the business. Employees typically have to be present at each step, but automated cash handling removes that necessity to a degree. Certain systems – such as a cash recycler or dispenser – can accept some cash-handling duties of an employee. This will afford employees more time to spend on personalised customer interactions, in addition to operational cost savings.
Armoured Transport
It’s important to get the highest quality equipment for safely and securely counting, processing, and depositing notes and coins on armored transports. Businesses and individuals rely on these transport services to keep their money safe, no matter what, so it’s important that the safety and protection are upheld on the transport end.
Businesses want to be able to better track and store money, restrict cash levels on the floor and prevent unwarranted access.
Gaming Industry
Aside from a major bank, the cash flow at a casino is higher than any establishment. All the cash in a casino needs to be accounted for and high tech coin counters are great for doing so. Without these cash handling systems, there would be total and complete chaos at casinos across the country.
