Currency system integration from Adelaide for Australian businesses

Your coin machines, note counters and scales produce data — totals, denominations, batch counts, error logs. WaTo connects that data to the systems your business actually uses: POS platforms, banking software, reconciliation tools and reporting dashboards. Instead of manual data entry and spreadsheets, your currency figures flow automatically to where they need to be. Adelaide-based, integrating nationally since 2001.

What is currency system integration?

Currency system integration means connecting your cash-handling equipment to your business software so data moves automatically. When a note counter finishes a batch, the total can flow straight into your reconciliation system. When a coin machine processes a deposit, the figures can feed into your banking platform. It removes manual entry, reduces errors and gives your finance team real-time visibility over cash processing across all your sites.

What we do

POS integration

Coin and note counter data linked to your point-of-sale system for automatic till reconciliation at end of day.

Banking system feeds

Deposit totals from coin machines and note counters pushed directly into your banking or treasury management platform.

Reconciliation automation

Cash figures from your equipment automatically matched against expected totals — discrepancies flagged without manual comparison.

Multi-site consolidation

Data from machines across multiple locations consolidated into a single view for head office reporting and oversight.

Data export configuration

Machines configured to export data in the format your systems need — CSV, API, direct database write or file transfer.

Testing and validation

Every integration is tested end to end with live transactions before go-live to ensure data flows correctly and completely.

Who it's for

  • Banks and credit unions wanting branch coin and note data to flow directly into core banking systems.
  • Retail groups looking to automate till reconciliation across multiple stores.
  • RSLs, clubs and casinos integrating cash-handling data with gaming and financial reporting systems.
  • Cash-in-transit companies connecting processing equipment to client reporting and billing platforms.

How it works

  1. We map your current workflow. Understanding what data your equipment produces, where it needs to go and what manual steps currently sit in between.
  2. We design the integration. A clear plan covering data formats, connection methods, frequency and any middleware or configuration needed.
  3. We configure your equipment. Machines set up to export data in the right format, at the right time, to the right destination.
  4. We test with live data. End-to-end testing with real transactions to make sure figures arrive accurately and completely in your target system.
  5. We support after go-live. Monitoring for the first few weeks, then ongoing support if anything changes in your equipment or business systems.

Why WaTo for system integration

  • We understand both sides — currency equipment and business IT systems — so we bridge the gap properly.
  • We've been an IT and currency solutions provider since 2001, not just one or the other.
  • Integrations tested end to end with live data before we hand over — no surprises on day one.
  • Adelaide-based with national reach for multi-site rollouts and ongoing support.
  • One team for your currency equipment, IT infrastructure and integration — fewer vendors, less coordination.

Integration questions

Can our existing equipment be integrated?

Most modern commercial coin machines, note counters and scales support some form of data export — serial, USB, Ethernet or file-based. We'll check your specific models during the scoping phase and tell you what's possible.

What if our POS or banking system is custom or legacy?

We work with whatever you have. If your system accepts CSV imports, API calls or database writes, we can usually find a way to connect. If it's truly closed, we'll be honest about the limitations.

How long does an integration project take?

A single-site, single-system integration can often be completed in a week or two. Multi-site rollouts with complex business systems may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline during scoping.

What happens if something breaks after go-live?

We provide ongoing support. If data stops flowing or a configuration changes, call us and we'll investigate and resolve it — usually the same day for straightforward issues.

Ready to connect your currency data?

Tell us what equipment you have and where the data needs to go — we'll work out the best way to connect the dots.

No two businesses are the same — so nothing we do is off-the-shelf. Every solution is built around yours, and kept simple.

Our story

Built in Adelaide, since 2001

WaTo Consulting was founded by John Watson in Adelaide in 2001. Over two decades it's earned a name for tailored work across a wide range of industries — helping businesses of every size run more smoothly, work more efficiently and grow steadily, without blowing the budget or disrupting the day-to-day.

Emma Watson (née Dickenson) played a significant part in shaping what WaTo became. She brought real expertise and a clear vision for where it could go — expanding the business, bringing in new systems and fresh thinking, and raising the standard of how things are done. A great deal of what WaTo is, we owe to her.

Today it's all tailored, never off-the-shelf — IT & Digital, Business & Web Hosting, built around what each client actually needs. Over the years those areas have come together under one roof: our IT & Digital, Currency, Business and Web work (through Whosts.au) now all sit within WaTo Consulting — one team, one standard, looking after the lot.

When you work with us, you're not a client — you're a partner.
