How it works
Enter how many of each note and coin you are holding and the counter multiplies every quantity by its face value, then adds the results up. All money is handled in whole minor units (cents or pence) internally, so there is no floating-point drift — 3 × $20 plus 5 × $5 plus 7 quarters is exactly $86.75, not $86.749999. Notes and coins are subtotalled separately, which is the split most cash-drawer and till reconciliation sheets ask for.
Type an expected total — your register reading or float — and the tool shows the variance: "over" when the drawer holds more than expected, "short" when it holds less, "balanced" when they match to the cent. USD, EUR and GBP denomination sets are built in, including the $2 bill, the €500 note and £2 coins. Copy the summary as plain text or download it as a CSV you can paste straight into a spreadsheet. Everything runs in your browser — no sign-up, no ads and no figures ever leave your device.
Frequently asked questions
How do you count a cash drawer by denomination?
Sort the cash into piles by note and coin, count each pile, then enter the quantities here. The tool multiplies every quantity by its face value, subtotals notes and coins separately and adds them into a grand total — exactly how a standard till count sheet works.
What does over or short mean on a till count?
Type your register reading or float into the expected total field. If the counted cash is more than expected the drawer is over; if it is less it is short; if the two match to the cent it is balanced. The variance is the difference between them.
Are the totals accurate to the cent?
Yes. Every amount is handled internally in whole minor units — cents or pence — so no floating-point rounding error can creep in. Three $20 bills, five $5 bills and seven quarters total exactly $86.75.
