In 2024, businesses and individuals have more choice than ever when it comes to counting their profits. Luckily there are a number of products on the market to help you do so quickly and accurately. But what are some of the top money counting machines out there? Let’s take a deeper look into which machines might suit you and how they work…
The ZZap NC20i

This intelligent, yet affordable machine counts all world currencies at the extremely fast rate of 1,000 bills per minute. This minute includes verification of each and every bill that passes through the machine with 5-fold counterfeit detection.
One of the main selling points of the NC20i over other machines at this price point is its ability to count single denomination values. This allows the machine to display the value of the amount counted rather than just the number of bills counted.
Its sorting function allows the NC20i to detect different denominations, along with its batch counting function to allow for easy preparation for cash drawers and bank deposits. On top of all of this, it has excellent counterfeit detection and high speed counting capabilities that are 8 times faster than manual counting, making it one of the best all round bill counting machines available.
The ZZap NC50
This counter is value for money and makes counting your cash simpler than ever. It allows you to count a mixture of bill denominations without needing to presort them. The machine also has the ability to display the total value and quantity of bills counted, reporting the total value and quantity of each denominated counted. While there are 4 default currencies installed in the machine, other currencies can be loaded as and when needed. 
The USB currency update port allows for newly issues bills to be counted as well as the downloading of other currencies.
The NC50 has 3 speed settings depending on the condition of the bills you are counting – 800 bills per minute, 1,200 bills per minute or 1,200 bills per minute. Old or worn out bills should be counted at lower speeds to reduce the risk of ripping.
This clever machine also has a sort function to detect rogue denominations within your single denomination bills. If a different denomination is counted, the machine will pause and alert you with a visual and audio warning.

The NC70 is known as the ultimate professional-grade bill counter and is designed for high-volume use and error-free counting. Some of its key features include mixed denomination value counting and 100% accurate counterfeit bill detection. It can also sort bills by face, orientation and denomination and count up to 4 mixed currencies at once.
It’s a two-pocket machine which enables it to split the bills and sort them while counting. The NC70 will automatically off-sort counterfeits and other bills of your choice.Because it has a top loading hopper and a larger bill capacity, it allows you to add bills to the hopper while it runs for easy and continuous counting.
The NC70 also has a unique built-in thermal printer which is integrated into the body of the machine and doesn’t require ink. This allows you to print the counting report breakdown or a list of all the bill serial numbers, making administration reports easy for your business. Alternatively, you can always view these reports on the display screen or export them to a PC.

And then it comes to accuracy, this machine can help you regardless of bill condition.
