Cashmaster International, one of the leading companies in the global cash management sector, is moving swiftly to offer its UK customers a complete solution to the imminent introduction of the new polymer notes.
On 26 August 2015, Cashmaster launches its ‘Be Polymer Ready’ upgrade pack to all UK customers. In addition, all new Cashmaster machines will be fully polymer compatible with immediate effect and the Cashmaster Delta counterfeit note detector is also configured to work with polymer notes.
Cashmaster is one of the first count-by-weight solution providers to be fully compliant with the current Scottish polymer £5 note, issued by Clydesdale Bank earlier this year, and the upcoming releases by the Bank of England of their £5 and £10 in 2016/17, which are all pre-programmed. There are 25 other countries worldwide now using polymer notes.
The Cashmaster ‘Be Polymer Ready’ upgrade pack will allow customers to count both polymer and paper notes. The upgrade only takes a few minutes to complete, after which time customers can confidently integrate polymer note counting into their business processes with immediate effect.
As a leading, global player in the delivery of cash counting and loss prevention solutions, I am delighted to confirm that our current range of products are now ready for the introduction of polymer notes. For our existing and new customers, this is a significant milestone.Gordon McKie CEO, Cashmaster International
Our customers want the integration of these new notes to be as seamless as possible – and by launching our upgrade pack now, our existing customers will find the gradual introduction of the notes very easy to cope with. The simple software solution will mean our existing customers can be polymer ready in just a few minutes. New customers, too, will be immediately fully polymer compatible as all new Cashmaster count-by-weight products for the UK are pre-programmed with the new polymer data.
