Sora Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Hello, I just want to say starting off it is nice to see all of you guys helping one another out on here, i'm new to the vending business and have a treasure chest claw machine pictures shown and the bill acceptor is not taking 5s even though it says it allows for 1s or 5s anyone know what switch layout this needs in order for the machine to take fives like it is supposed to? Also was wondering if a credit card reader could be added to this machine, I was not sure because of its age but maybe someone here knows a little more than me. Thank you very much for any help on this topic it is really appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orsd Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Pics of bill validator? Did the machine ever take 5 dollar bills? Credit card readers are possible, you need one configured for pulse. That way the machine sees it as essentially just another bill validator or coin mech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadDogAmusements Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Your machine is likely from before 2008 when the colored $5 bills came out. It essentially looks like a piece of counterfeit money to the dollar bill acceptors and it's doing its job by rejecting it. Depending on the type of bill acceptor it is you can have it updated to accept newer bills. There is also the chance like you implied that the $5 acceptance is turned off. I would say that you should post either the model or pictures of the validator so that we can assist you better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
