HOW IT ALL STARTED
When counterfeiting activity exploded after the 2001 introduction of the euro in Europe, it set off a spark in the minds of our founders. They assembled a team of developers and experts to explore ways to protect business owners from this type of fraud. Three years later, Safescan entered the counterfeit detection market with sophisticated six-point banknote authentication technology. A range of complementary cash handling products followed, including money counters, cash drawers and POS safes, and in 2009, Safescan entered the time and attendance market with a line of intelligent, user-friendly time clock systems and software.
