The Smart Cash Box Built for Small Business
RetailBox from Brink's holds your cash securely in your own store. Your credit posts via ACH within two business days, and every dollar is tracked in the 24SEVEN online portal. One flat monthly rate, no upfront cost.
Cash secured by close. Credit in your account by morning. Trusted by businesses for 165+ years.
How RetailBox works
The same simple process, every day.
Deposit. Your staff places cash into the RetailBox device where it is secured. The 24SEVEN portal records the cash in the device, so your count is always visible.
Get credited. Brink's credits your account within two business days based on what's in the device. You get access to your working capital without a trip to the bank.
Track and collect. You monitor everything in the Brink’s 24SEVEN online portal. Brink's collects the cash on your scheduled day and moves it through a secure chain of custody.
Cash handling is costing you more than you think
Every bank run is paid labor. Every manual count is a chance for error. Every till left unreconciled overnight is a liability sitting in your store. For a small business, handling cash by hand costs you a hundred small amounts every week, none of which show up on a single line of your P&L.
RetailBox brings the cash-handling capabilities large retailers rely on to a single store, without the setup or price tag that usually comes with them.
What RetailBox does for your business
Access your money the next business day
After you drop cash into RetailBox, Brink's credits your account via ACH within two business days. You don't wait for a deposit to clear or for someone to drive to the bank. Money that used to sit in a drawer for days is available to you on a predictable schedule.
Stop going on bank runs
Your staff no longer has to risk driving deposits to the bank. This ends the after-hours safety exposure, the mileage, and the paid hours spent away from customers. Instead, the cash stays secured in the RetailBox device until Brink's collects it.
Reduce your banking and deposit fees
Frequent trips to the bank often mean per-deposit charges, cash-handling fees, and the cost of the staff time behind each run. Brink’s collects from the RetailBox on a scheduled cadence and credits your account directly via ACH, which helps you consolidate that activity into one predictable monthly rate.

How next-business-day credit works
With a traditional deposit, cash sits in your store overnight, gets driven to the bank, and then waits for the deposit to clear before the funds are usable. That cycle can stretch several days, and your working capital is stuck for all of it.
RetailBox shortens that cycle. Once cash is secured in the device and recorded in the 24SEVEN portal, Brink's credits your account via ACH within two business days, rather than waiting for a physical deposit to be transported and cleared first. Brink's collects the physical cash later, on your scheduled cadence, so the credit and the pickup are no longer tied to the same trip.
The result is faster, more predictable access to the money you've already taken in. Your account team confirms the exact credit timing for your plan when they set it up.
One flat monthly rate. No upfront cost.
With RetailBox, you subscribe instead of buying equipment outright. One flat monthly rate covers the device, next-business-day credit, 24SEVEN portal access, setup, and training. There's nothing to buy upfront, no separate installation invoice, and no surprise line items.
Your rate depends on your cash volume and how often Brink's collects from your location. Your account team builds the quote around your operation, not a generic package.
Built for businesses like yours
RetailBox lets you handle your cash without the overhead of a full enterprise program.
Independent retailers
Keep your shop floor staffed instead of sending someone to the bank, and put each day's sales to work faster, all without buying a safe outright.
Restaurants and cafés
Drop the night's takings into RetailBox at close and keep your team in the dining room instead of driving deposits out after dark.
Service businesses with one or a few locations
Run the same flat-rate cash handling across every site you operate, with credit and reporting that scale as you add locations.
Where RetailBox fits in the Brink's portfolio
RetailBox is the entry point. As your cash volume or location count grows, the rest of Brink's Complete is there when you need it.
Smart Safes
When your volumes outgrow RetailBox, Brink's offers more complex smart safes, including the Brink's Box and B-Safe. These safes validate each note as it's dropped, check for counterfeits, and track cash by employee, giving you more control.
Cash-in-Transit
Brink's offers scheduled armored pickup with a verified chain of custody. We collect the cash from your location and transfer it to the bank, so no one on your team has to make the trip.
Brink's Complete Enterprise
When you're running many locations at once, Brink's Complete Enterprise brings the full program together: smart safes, armored transport, change orders, and centralized reporting across every site, all under one subscription.
