1. A method of utilizing a processing device to manage a currency-management system, the method comprising executing instructions by a processor of the processing device to effectuate operations comprising:
- identifying characteristics of a user by utilization of a first sensor which is associated with the user, wherein the characteristics include a location of the user;
determining an approximation of physical currency in possession of the user based on the location;
identifying a state of a first currency dispenser through utilization of a second sensor which is associated with the currency dispenser;
identifying a frequency at which the user has previously distributed currency to any currency dispenser system managed by the currency management system;
based on the characteristics and the state, identifying information to provide to the user, wherein the information includes an incentive for the user to distribute currency to the currency dispenser system, wherein a value of the incentive is proportional to the frequency at which the user has distributed currency to the currency dispenser system; and
causing the information to be output from a user device.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon executed by a processor to:
-
identify characteristics of a user by utilization of a first sensor which is associated with the user, wherein the characteristics include a location of the user; determine an approximation of physical currency in possession of the user based on the location; identify a status of a first currency dispenser through utilization of a second sensor which is associated with the currency dispenser; identify a frequency at which the user has previously distributed currency to any currency dispenser system managed by the currency management system; based on the characteristics and the status, identify information to send to the user wherein the information includes an incentive for the user to distribute currency to the currency dispenser system, wherein a value of the incentive is proportional to the frequency at which the user has distributed currency to the currency dispenser system; and cause the information to be electronically presented to the user. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
