Nearly two-thirds of Americans claimed to be against a cashless society.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Every day more and more mobile payment apps and cashless stores are flooding the market.<\/p>\n

Currently, the worldwide mobile payment revenue is expected<\/a> to surpass 1 trillion U.S. dollars in 2019 and attain a market size of $4,574 billion by 2023 as customers constantly demand easy, hassle-free, digital and cashless payment methods.<\/p>\n

In the current scenario, a 2017\u00a0Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation<\/a>\u00a0survey showed that 6.5% of U.S. households were unbanked, meaning they lacked a checking or savings account, while an additional 18.7% of households were underbanked, meaning they had a bank account but used at least one alternative service like money orders, check cashing or payday loans.<\/p>\n

The reasons of cash<\/h1>\n

According to Bloomberg<\/a>, there are a variety of reasons Americans use cash.<\/p>\n

Even with a steady income, people living paycheck-to-paycheck may not have enough money to keep in an account. Some don\u2019t want to pay the fees; others don\u2019t trust banks\u00a0or are concerned about privacy.<\/p>\n

The homeless are especially vulnerable. If they\u00a0lose their documents, they often have trouble getting them again. Michelle Jones, 37, who arrived in Seattle in 2001 as a homeless youth, lost her social security card three times and says it was stolen\u00a0once.<\/p>\n

The benefits of cashless stores<\/h1>\n

Electronic payments save\u00a0employees the time it takes to collect, store and transport cash. Theft is less likely. Customers typically move faster through checkout lines because they don\u2019t need to count out their cash and wait for change.<\/p>\n

The retailers and restaurants that don\u2019t offer cash options often cater to wealthier customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe tech solutions that are coming up are innovative and amazing but they haven\u2019t reached our customers in numbers where we think that it\u2019s okay for businesses to stop taking cash,\u201d says Darren Liddell<\/a>, director of program innovation at\u00a0The Financial Clinic, a New York nonprofit that teaches clients how to manage money. \u201cI suspect that there will be a time in America where we\u2019ll start to have those conversations. I just don\u2019t think we\u2019re there yet.\u201d<\/p>\n
