CXT

Crane Nxt, Co.

A maker of payment and security technology that helps banks, retailers, and governments handle cash and fight counterfeiting. Its Crane Payment Innovations division builds the bill validators and coin handlers found in vending machines, while its MOTION micro-optic threads give banknotes moving, 3D-style images that are hard to fake. The company traces to 1855, when Richard Teller Crane opened a brass-goods shop in Chicago, and was spun off from Crane Holdings in 2023 — its name "NXT" is a playful spelling of "next."
