Apple iPad dispenses change in a different role

We all know what a versatile device the iPad can be, but who would have thought that it could actually dispense money to customers? That’s exactly what happens when Revel Systems teamed up with Telequip in order to find a way to increase the efficiency of restaurants as well as their revenue thanks to the presence of automatic coin dispenser machines that have the iPad as its heart, no less. Basically, the customer will place an order off the iPad, where Revel’s point of sale software will work and dispense change automatically after one pays with cash.

Popeye’s of Massachusetts relies on the T-Flex coin dispenser that not only saves time, but helped generate another $10,800 dollars in sales each month. I do wonder how do they quantify that kind of increase and the metrics that go into the calculation, but certainly a five figure increase in income is no laughing matter.

Revel’s innovative iPad POS does seem to be worth investing in if you happen to own a business and want to maximize your profits. [Press Release]
