WEST CHESTER, Pa. — Cash transactions cost retailers far less than the average two percent fee incurred from signature debit and credit transactions. MEI has released a new toolkit that makes it easier for retailers to accept cash transactions in their kiosks and self-checkout systems. MEI designed the Point of Service Toolkit (MPOST) to reduce the integration time of bill validators by at least 50 percent.

The toolkit includes flash download capability, an easy-to-use-library, advanced error handling, automatic device and currency detection and configuration, unit auditing, and test and demo programs.
