The short answer
A currency fit-out equips a bureau de change, bank branch or cash-handling venue with note counters, coin machines, counterfeit detectors, safes and the IT to run them. Adelaide-based WaTo Consulting supplies, installs, tests and services the equipment, and has fitted out sites across Australia since 2001.
What is a currency equipment fit-out?
A currency equipment fit-out is a project to equip a new or existing cash-handling site with the machines and technology it needs to operate. For a bureau de change, that might mean note counting machines, counterfeit detectors, a coin sorter, a safe, PCs for transaction software and network connectivity. For a bank branch, it could be self-service coin machines and back-office counting equipment. The fit-out covers procurement, installation, configuration and testing, everything needed to go from empty counter to operational.

Who it's for
- Bureau de change operators opening new outlets or refitting existing locations with updated equipment.
- Banks and credit unions upgrading branch cash-handling equipment or adding self-service coin machines.
- RSLs, clubs and gaming venues needing coin counting and note processing equipment for their cash operations.
- Any business that handles high volumes of cash and needs a properly equipped, efficient processing environment.
How it works
- We scope your operation. A conversation about your daily volumes, currency types, transaction software, compliance requirements and site layout, so we know exactly what you need.
- We recommend and procure equipment. Specific machines recommended based on your throughput, with note counters, coin sorters, detectors, safes and IT gear sourced and confirmed.
- We prepare the site. Power, data and network points planned and installed where needed, so every workstation has the connections it requires.
- We install and configure everything. Equipment installed, calibrated, connected to your transaction software and tested with live currency until the full system works end to end.
- We train your team and hand over. Staff trained on operating each machine, daily maintenance routines and basic troubleshooting, plus ongoing support from our currency equipment team.
