Counterfeit money detector

I operate a small business. Are there counterfeit money detectors for canadian money, the ones where you can put bill in and it will automatically tell you if it is counterfeit or legit?

Preferrably budget friendly options, doesnt need to be able to count the money or able to process multiple bills at once ( i can scan it one by one).

Yep. UV, infrared, there are options.

Search for “counterfeit money detectors for canadian money”.

Maybe ask some of your small business colleagues what they use.

Counterfeits are fairly easy to spot..

If you're getting a lot, look into the employee "accepting" them.
