Who would decide to wash their car without having coins (if there is no additional possibility of paying by card at the car wash)? Why is the sight of a money changer at a car wash no longer surprising? A money changer has become a permanent element of the equipment of touchless car washes. Rightly so, as the money changer plays a very important role. By changing banknotes into coins, it enables your customers to pay for car washing. All the more we are pleased to inform you that we have created a budget version of the BKF money changer. This is a nod to our customers who asked us for a simpler solution. The new BKF Basic money changer offers high quality components, used in the basic version, at a very attractive price! What elements distinguish our product from others? Firstly: safety In all our machines we use protocols encrypting the communication between the most important components. Thanks to this, the device is fully protected against electromagnetic pulse generators, which are used to steal coins. You will not find such solutions in low-budget money changers based on a plain pulse protocol. This is a significant advantage, which ensures full reliability of the device and peace of mind at night. Secondly: remote control As the owner of a BKF car wash, you can connect the money changer to the car wash controller and the Carwash Manager management system. Thanks to that you have full control over the machine’s work and insight into financial statistics. Our money changer will tell you itself when you have to refill the coins. Thirdly: simple and intuitive operation Simple operation also means simple servicing. It is a very intuitive device, which will not give you any trouble if you want to service it yourself. The money changer is also extremely easy for the customer to use. Simply insert the banknote into the reader and that’s it. After a while, the banknote is automatically exchanged for coins. Fourthly: attractive price This element will surely attract your attention if you compare prices of similar solutions on the market. Just remember not to be guided by the price alone. You should also take into account other important issues, such as the security and control of the device mentioned above.
How is the new BKF money changer constructed?
We use the highest quality components in all our machines! Also in this basic version, we used the well-known Alberici hoppers and banknote readers from the renowned company ICT (Currency Technologies Corp.). ICT’s XBA series banknote readers (you will also find them in our other devices: payment terminals, money changers) are equipped with innovative banknote acceptance technology and stand out with a high acceptance rate of 98%.
Additional equipment of our money changer includes:
- compact front and casing made of stainless steel,
- banknote reader and coin cassette protected by polycarbonate shields,
- installation in the wall of a container or in the wall of a room designated by the customer.

What are the other equipment elements of the new money changer?
A single hopper can hold from 1,000 to 1,200 coins of one denomination. It is you who decides what denomination of coins the money changer will dispense.
The 4-segment LED display has an informative function. After a banknote is inserted into the reader, it shows the amount paid.
Reliable operation is ensured by the absence of excessive electronics. In this version, you cannot add a loyalty card reader or dispenser, a printer or a payment card reader.
If you need a richer version of the money changer, allowing payment by bank card, with the option of printing receipts or loyalty card support, check out our offer: BKF money changers.
