COUNTING ON TECHNOLOGY

The automation of cash counting can improve security – and give you more time to do your job

Usually, the person counting cash in a venue is the owner or manager. So if the cash is counted more quickly and more efficiently, with reporting downloaded into your computer system, that staff member or owner has more free time to do what they’re really good at, which is presumably not just counting cash.

Andrew Crowson, Cummins Allison UK’s managing director, explains: “The biggest problem people have with counting cash is security issues. The more hands money passes through, the greater the risk of it being stolen or counted incorrectly. There are many points at which mistakes can happen, or money can be misappropriated.

“So what our machines do is count the money very fast, very accurately and very efficiently, and you can add things to allow you to download information straight into a computer, into spreadsheets, into management systems, that kind of thing.”

The company’s best-seller is the JetSort 1000, a compact unit which can sort up to an incredible 2200 coins a minute with 99.995 percent accuracy. The device comes with a patented sorting disk which is warranted for 10m coins.

Large keys, a clear LCD screen and a built-in lift tray all combine to make this easy to use for just about anyone, and the JetSort 1000 can sort up to eight different coins.
