How to Program a Coin Counter

In grocery stores it is becoming common to see coin-counting kiosks. The reason for these coin machines is to attract customers. Many people collect change in jars and, instead of rolling the coinage, the kiosk allows the users to pour their change into the machine for sorting. In exchange for the coins the user receives a voucher stating the monetary worth minus the fee of 7.5 percent the kiosk charged for counting the change. Sales in stores that house the coin-counting kiosk report an increase in store sales because users spend their money form coins at the location of the kiosk.
