The machine detects the type of coin inserted by default; when users insert coins, they are given a receipt which lists their total value in U.S. dollars.
and rounds up any value under 50 cents to 50 cents.
What does ‘rounding up’ mean? The cashier gives an example – if you insert 1 cent or 4 quarters, the cashier will give you 5 quarters or 50 cents back.
When does it cost more? Whenever customers insert $1 or more worth of coins at once, they must pay for them in full before receiving their change.
