Co-op makes cash safer

By Retail Technology | Friday September 17 2021 | UPDATED 17.09.21

The Co-op Food Group is using a new cash handling solution to prioritise colleague safety

Co-op Food Group and Volumatic have been rolling out the SmartCash solution across all 2,600 Co-op stores during the last 12 months.

In the wake of the pandemic, SmartCash, a one-touch cash handling solution with Volumatic’s CCi device, has helped protect Co-op store colleagues by minimising cash contact while eliminating forgeries, reducing theft risk, and minimising banking errors for the business.

SmartCash focuses on creating a safer, more secure environment for Co-op store colleagues. All the while, saving colleagues and store managers hours in managing cash so that they can dedicate more time to their customers and create a safer, more enjoyable shopping experience for all.

“SmartCash has come at the best possible time when we’ve been prioritising both customer and colleague safety. With one-touch cash handling, our colleagues feel much safer, while the reduced risk of theft creates a secure work environment for all,” said Caroline McMahon, Co-op’s SmartCash project lead.
