Published in Coin Conversion 2 mins read

Using a CoinMax machine to convert your loose change into a cash voucher is a simple, three-step process designed for convenience.

To use CoinMax, you simply pour your coins into the designated tray, feed them into the slot using the handle, and then redeem your cash voucher at a teller on the same day.

Here's a detailed breakdown of how to utilize the CoinMax service effectively:

Step-by-Step Guide to Using CoinMax

The CoinMax machine is designed for ease of use, making coin counting quick and efficient. Follow these steps to process your coins:

  1. Pour Your Coins: Begin by pouring all your loose coins into the large tray provided by the CoinMax machine. Ensure no foreign objects are mixed with your coins to prevent machine jams.
  2. Feed Coins into the Slot: Once your coins are in the tray, lift the handle on the machine. This action allows you to feed your coins from the tray into the counting slot. The machine will then automatically count and sort your coins.
  3. Redeem Your Cash Voucher: After all your coins have been counted, the machine will issue a cash voucher. This voucher represents the total value of your counted coins. It is crucial to redeem this voucher at a teller on the same day it is issued.

Tips for a Smooth CoinMax Experience

  • Sort if Possible: While CoinMax machines handle mixed coins, pre-sorting can sometimes speed up the process, especially if you have an exceptionally large volume of coins.
  • Check for Debris: Before pouring, quickly check your coins for any non-coin items like paper clips, buttons, or foreign currency, as these can cause issues with the machine.
  • Same-Day Redemption: Always remember the critical requirement to redeem your voucher at a teller on the same day. Vouchers may expire or become invalid if not redeemed promptly.
