The Solution
 

Cash Bases redesigned the checkout to place a scanner facing the customer and a flip lid drawer at right angles to the left of the cashier and in line with the customer as they pay for their goods. At the same time Cash Bases played a significant role in designing the revolutionary back-to-back checkout design seen in many stores today.
 

The Benefits
 

Eye to eye contact between cashier and customer throughout the transaction plus the protection of a flip lid drawer reduces the incidence of counterfeit note presentation and snatch theft and improves employee safety. Normal customers enjoy better interaction.
Inter-fitting back-to-back checkouts mean more points of sale within the same footprint for increased revenue and improved efficiency.

Cashier Accountability custom

The Requirement

A prestige multiple determined to introduce a high level of cashier accountability and improved cash balancing.

The Solution

Cash Bases devised a Cash drawer insert with magnetised integral lid and NO key release either on the outer lid or for emergencies. The drawer is only opened by software triggered at the time of transaction. Removable, weight calibrated coin cups were incorporated into the inserts.

The Benefits

Cashiers are encouraged to be accurate in all transactions and inserts are moved to a secure location where appropriate software opens the drawer for efficient and secure cash management. Coin cups can be removed and placed straight on to weigh scales in the back office for accurate cash balancing.

Late Night Security

The Requirement

A premium food division of a mixed retail multiple had issues with employee vulnerability due to late night opening and easily accessed High Street and railway station locations. Coin transactions were unusually high and point of sale needed to be manned at all times with little opportunity to cash-up during the shift.

The Solution

Cash Bases created a wide flip top drawer with a separate lift out coin tray containing special, large capacity coin cups. Working closely with the checkout manufacturer, its own successful skimmer drawer design was adapted to provide a secure drawer receptacle concealed within their units.

The Benefits

The flip lid increases security in the front facing checkouts. High capacity coin cups reduce the need for removal and replenishment during the shift. High denomination notes drop into a secure hidden drawer from which they can be retrieved or left safely undetected overnight for a supervisor to balance in the morning. Retention of late shift staff and efficiency improves and staffing costs are reduced.

Peak and Seasonal Points of Sale

The Requirement

A national mixed retailer realised that it was creating multiple opportunities for increased sales during lunch times, seasonal promotions and bi-annual sales but was not realising a proportional increase in revenue.
 

The Solution

Cash Bases custom designed a PowerBase mobile wireless workstation capable of integrating epos with the back office for up to 16 hours via the stores’ RF network and within a radius of 2 km. A hand scanner, chip and pin machine and screen were supplied by the customer’s chosen integrator and a Cash Bases space saving flip lid drawer under-mounted. Bag hangers, poles for a Pay Here sign and lift up shelves for increased packing area were added.
 

The Benefits

PowerBase ensures that all sales opportunities are maximised. Promotions can be run in or outside the store to attract impulse purchase and increased footfall, refurbishments, seasonal and promotional peak sales on hosiery, flowers, Christmas, fireworks and sandwiches are maximised, queues are reduced and store refurbishments are no longer loss leaders.
