Cikam - Automating cash payments

Cash remains the most reliable means of payment available. At least 25-30% of all payments are still made with cash. Cikam therefore offers solutions to process cash in a safe and efficient manner through closed payment systems and cash recycling systems.

Front office closed payment systems

A Cikam Easy Cash closed payment system, linked to the till, is a safe, efficient and hygienic solution for letting customers pay with cash. How it works. Customers enter cash into the system and automatically receive their change. As the cash payment process is automated, employees no longer come into contact with the money. How safe! There is also no need to count the money, which saves a considerable amount of time.

Back office cash recycling system

Processing cash takes a lot of time; counting money, changing money, preparing and depositing cash drawers or wallets. Cash recycling systems can automate and speed up this whole process. How does it work? Each employee logs into the system with their own login details. This allows the employee himself to withdraw his set starting amount from the system at the start of the shift and deposit the contents of his cash drawer at the end of the shift. All operations are completed within a minute. Intervention by a supervisor is no longer necessary.

Advantages

Depending on the solution, Cikam Easy Cash systems deliver the following benefits:

• No cash differences
• No theft possible
• No more 'open money'
• No more counterfeit money
• Hygienic
• No more counting money
• Increasing security
• Cash inventory optimisation
