Hello,
Is there any way to connect Square Register to an automatic coin dispenser?
As my business has grown, we now see a need for an automatic coin dispenser to speed our cash transactions. Would be a great thing to add as the model by T-Flex currently used by Mcdonalds and other chains has USB connectivity.
Hey @Triflingdork. I did a little research on this subject this morning and came up with nothing. That tells me two things. First, Square itself seems not to have any coin dispensers that it integrates with. Second, it seems that there are no third-party coin dispensers that have chosen to integrate yet with Square.
Honestly, this is one of those cases where you would be better off reaching out to the coin dispenser vendors and inquiring about whether or not they can integrate with your Square account. It seems to me that CoinStar COULD possibly attach as a hardware device to our POSs (as a cash register, for example) and be triggered by a completed transaction. But that entire operation would be controlled by the coin dispenser’s hardware and software and not by Square. CoinStar, for example, would use Square’s POS APIs to create the interface.
Good luck.
