Re: I like proper cash
conversley, I know several pubs that dont take cash.
The costs of cash handling and having change available are starting to become excessive and some smaller businesses have started to work on electronic cash only.
G-Pay/Android-Pay, ApplePay and SamsungPay are leading the way with mobile payments, with challenger banks like monzo and Starling comming on in leaps and bounds. In several places Cash just isnt needed, and mostly causes more issues than its worth.
Microsoft has had its own currency for ages, Microsoft Points are purchaseable in any currency and used for purchasing from their online platforms.
