Learn more about our money counting scales


Efficiency and accuracy are important for any business, especially when it comes to your cash handling processes. Read along to learn more about our money weighing machines and find out how they can improve these processes, boost your productivity, and increase your efficiency.

What is a money scale?


Money scales (or ‘’money counter weighers’’) are automated machines that count both coins and banknotes. Unlike our other cash counters, money scales do not count banknotes and coins by transporting them through the device. Instead, they simply recognise and count them by their weight. To get started, place your first - and lowest - coin denomination on the scale. The device will then weight all the coins and tell you their quantity and value. Simply repeat this process for all your denominations. That’s it! Within minutes you will know the exact quantity and value of all your cash items.

What are the benefits of using a money weighing scale?


People often choose money weighing scales for the flexibility that they provide. Where most devices can only count banknotes or coins, money scales can count both, and more. They can also count coin bags, bundled banknotes, and even non-cash items such as vouchers and tokens. A flexibility that only money weighing scales can offer.

Another important reason why people choose to work with money weighing scales, is because they are super fast and save time. Did you know that with the right accessories - such as our coin cups - Safescan money counting scales can count your entire cash drawer in less than a minute? They can even send all your results directly to your computer with the included software. Further increasing your efficiency.

Besides being faster, money counter weighers also ensure accurate results. When manually counting cash it is easy to make mistakes. Our money counter weighers not only increase your counting speed, but they also minimise any chances of errors or human mistakes. Ensuring the most accurate and reliable results. Always.

Finally, people enjoy using our money scales because they are very easy to use. All you have to do is place your denominations on the device and let it do all the work for you. Without any training, anybody in your team can use our cash scales, easily and effectively.

Choosing the best money counting scale for your business


When choosing the best scale for your business, it is all about understanding your needs. If you are looking for a product that can quickly count one or two cash drawers, then the Safescan 6165 is perfect for you.

If you have to count multiple cash drawers, then the Safescan 6175 is the better option. It offers the same counting speed as the Safescan 6165, but can store individual results - with their own reference number - in its internal memory. This means that you can easily count one cash drawer, store your results, and move on to the next. Then when you have counted all your cash drawers, you simply take the device and add all your results to your administration or upload them to your computer. It’s that easy!

Additionally, the Safescan 6175 can also count non-cash items such as chips, vouchers, and tokens. The perfect product for businesses that work with physical gift vouchers, discount coupons, event tokens, or casino chips.

If you are looking for a more heavy-duty machine that can only counts large quantities of coins, we advise you to check out our automated coin counters and sorters. Want to count large stacks of banknotes? Then have a look at our banknote counters.

All Safescan cash counting machines are designed with the highest quality standards and come with a comprehensive three-year warranty. So you can confidently and accurately count your cash for years to come.

FAQ's about money scales


1. How do money scales work?
Money scales (or ‘’money counter weighers’’) are programmed to know the exact weight and value of individual denominations. When a stack of (pre-sorted) coins is placed on the device, it simply divides the total weight of the stack by the weight of one individual coin, to calculate the quantity. It then multiplies the total quantity with the value of one coin to calculate the total value.

2. Are money scales accurate?
Money scales are very accurate thanks to their advanced loading cell technology. They are so accurate that they can even be used as precision scales.

3. How fast are money scales?
Money counting scales can count your entire cash drawer in one or two minutes. This up to seven times faster than counting it by hand.

4. Do money counting scales work with all currencies?
Money counting scales can work with almost all currencies. However, they often come with a pre-installed set of currencies that are relevant for the region in which they are sold. This means less data stored on the devices, which makes the update process easier.

5. What items can money scales count?
Money scales can count coins, banknotes, coin rolls, coin bags, bundled banknotes, vouchers, coupons, tokens, and chips. Please note that the available counting options are dependent on which type of scale you choose.
