A device for stacking notes of value includes at least one circulating belt arrangement including an endless belt guided over rollers serving as deflecting elements. The circumferential surface of the belt has at least one transport tongue into which at least a section of a note of value is insertable. The device includes at least one strip-off element that contacts the note for the removal from the transport tongue. The device includes a contact element which is arranged and configured such that during the transport in the transport tongue the note moves the contact element into a first position. The contact element contacts an area of the note at least after the removal of the note of value from the transport tongue up to the arrival of this note on the deposit surface or on the upper note of value of a value note stack deposited on the deposit surface.
