The BEP is on track to print the new $10 bill with the accessible Raised Tactile Feature in 2026. Additionally, they have distributed more than 100,000 currency readers and have two mobile apps (Eye Note® for Apple users and IDEAL Currency Identifier for Android users) that also function as currency readers.
