Top Tips When Buying Your Money Counting Machine

Depending on your requirements will depend on the type of money counting machine you should purchase. Whether you need a Manual Coin Sorter, Banknote Counter or perhaps a coin sorting and counting machine there are many different options within each heading and so it is important you know which machine is best for you. Here are a few tips to consider when you are purchasing your money counting machine.

Decide on the type of money you will be counting

You will need to decide which type of money counting machine you will need before you can look at the individual machines. If your business deals solely or the majority with coins then a coin counter or coin sorter will be required. If you have pre-sorted coins ie from a till, then a coin counter or a coin and note scale will suffice. Maybe your business deals mainly with notes then a banknote machine would be a better match. If your business deals with both coins and notes equally then you may need to accommodate both needs by purchasing a combined coin and note counter or 2 different machines.

What is your Budget?

Of course with any purchase you need to think about your budget and how much you are wanting to spend on your money counting machine. There is a huge range of money counters available some are more basic such as a simple electronic coin counter which can be purchased for around £89, ranging to around £1400 for a very heavy duty coin counter and sorter. Manual coin sorters are available for around £50. Banknote counters range from £143 to around £590 depending on the features required.

Choosing the right company

Wherever you purchase your money counting machine from you need to be sure they offer good standards of customer service. If you are buying the machine from a website check that their policy on returns and breakages, you don’t want to be stuck with a machine that doesn’t even work! Again if you are buying the machine from a shop check that they will help if there are any problems with the machine even after a few months of purchase. Be wary of companies charging large extra fees for a warranty, quality machines should come with an included warranty which is an indication of their quality

If you consider your requirements beforehand, look around at the different prices, and choose a reputable company, when buying your money counting machine you should have no problems and will be very happy with your money counter and or sorter.
