This struck me when I was in Denmark, what it is a coin change machine. I have seen them before, but these were better. A customer can put their coins on the top. It checks that the coins are valid currency for Denmark, next adds up the total the customer puts in, sends the total to the point-of-sale system and subsequently once the operator finishes the transaction the point-of-sale system sends a message to it which issues the customer their change. It was much faster than a manual cashier. One coin machine could handle two cash registers. It then sends a message to the point of sale with the coins it used so the point of sales knows at all time what coins are in these machines. At the end of the day, it sorts the coins for the bank. I am sure they save a lot of time in high-volume retail shops.
We could now add these machines to our point-of-sale system is someone was interested.
