How do counterfeit pens work?

When you’re running a business, having the proper tools on hand is crucial. This could mean having the right planner for your schedule or the correct paper for your register or even keeping a counterfeit pen available to check currency. Stay one step ahead with a counterfeit pen. While bills are made with built-in security features that make counterfeiting a challenge, you can never be too careful. A money-checker pen with color-changing ink makes it easy to detect suspect bills at a glance. The specialty ink made with ingredients like iodine chemically reacts with paper, printing in one color for genuine currency and another for counterfeit bills. When your retail business hits its busy season, a counterfeit bill detector can help you do your due diligence without hindering progress.

What is a dual-test pen?

The power of the counterfeit-detector pen is even mightier when it has a built-in UV light. UV light lets you quickly identify UV watermarks and security strips on items like ID cards, passports, foreign currencies and other secure documents, as well as items like personal and traveler’s checks. Dual-test counterfeit pens are easy to keep at your checkout counter alongside rolls of register paper and other retail supplies, and some have antimicrobial protection to help ensure accuracy and a hygienic space. Choose from retractable options that deploy with a simple click of a button and pens with coil counter attachments that are easy to keep by your side.
