Systems and methods for retrofit housing for transaction devices

A method comprising:

• providing a retrofit housing within a vault of a transaction device, the retrofit housing comprising a vault interface and a housing transport apparatus;
• modifying a portion of a transaction device transport apparatus to receive at least a portion of the housing transport apparatus via the vault interface;
• coupling the retrofit housing to the transaction device;
• receiving, by the retrofit housing, a transfer cassette structured to retrievably store banknotes, the retrofit housing communicatively coupled to a housing control computing system;
• and
• performing a service operation comprising causing the housing transport apparatus to at least one of:
• transport one or more of the banknotes to the transfer cassette from one or more storage cassettes in the vault, or
• transport one or more of the banknotes from the transfer cassette to the one or more storage cassettes in the vault.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions embodied therein that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• receiving at least one of:
• a first indication that a transfer cassette is installed in a housing from a housing sensor, the housing coupled to a transaction device, and the transfer cassette structured to retrievably store one or more banknotes, or
• a first user input via the transaction device;
• causing, based on receiving at least one of the first user input or the first indication, a transaction device computing system to initiate a service mode executable;
• and
• performing a service operation comprising causing a housing transport mechanism to at least one of:
• transport the one or more banknotes to the transfer cassette via a vault transport mechanism interface of the housing, the vault transport mechanism interface structured to facilitate transporting banknotes between the housing and a vault of the transaction device, or
• transport one or more of the banknotes from the transfer cassette via the vault transport mechanism interface to one or more storage cassettes in the vault.
