Usage with vending machines
Many vending machines (e.g. parking meters or ticket machines) accept coins but do not give change. Some parking meters calculate the parking time based on the amount of money inserted. Overpaying results in a longer parking time than intended. This information is important for users to know in advance how much money they need to have ready.
Possible values
If payment:coins=yes is set, you may add:
payment:coins:change=yes– The vending machine gives change (in coins) when paying with coins. Temporary restrictions – for example, depending on the purchase value or the level of change – are not taken into account.payment:coins:change=no– The vending machine generally does not give change when paying with coins.
Usage with parking areas
If payment:coins=yes is also used on the corresponding parking area (in addition to the parking meter), you may also add payment:coins:change=* there.
Further use
Public restrooms that require a coin to unlock the door.
