A cash drawer is a secure place for storing money. It is also used for coupons, receipts, and valuable papers. For example, a store may run promotions for customers with coupons or discount cards, or offer gift certificates. Therefore, before choosing and purchasing a cash drawer in Ukraine, consider what exactly and in what quantity you will store. These factors determine the drawer's size.
How to Choose a Cash Drawer
Torgsoft specialists highlight five key criteria for choosing a cash drawer for your business:
-
Size. The size of a cash drawer is determined by the number of compartments. Drawers with two or four sections are small; models with five or more are considered large. These include banknote trays and coin sections. Consider how often you perform cash collection and transfer. If you use drawers with four or fewer compartments that fill up quickly, this can cause checkout delays and reduce customer loyalty.
-
Material. Most cash drawers are made of steel or impact-resistant plastic. Torgsoft recommends choosing models with a steel body. A metal cash drawer is powder-coated, which provides additional protection.
-
Form factor. Cash drawers come in vertical and horizontal models. Vertical drawers open only the lid and are built into the cashier’s desk, saving space. Horizontal models are more convenient: bills are more visible and accessible, which is important in high-traffic situations and with larger drawers.
-
Lock type. Cash drawers are made with either two (open/closed) or three lock positions. Three positions are more secure and convenient — allowing manual or automatic opening and locking.
-
Compatibility with POS hardware: POS terminal, cash register, or receipt printer. An automatic drawer opens on its own when a receipt is printed, via 12V or 24V power. In large stores with high foot traffic and peak hours, automatic opening doubles checkout speed.
