The writing on the wall is clear. Cash payments are passé. Consumers are increasingly opting for debit and credit cards or other digital payment methods—for in-store and eCommerce purchases alike. A study by the Pew Research Centre found that in 2022, 41% of consumers didn’t use cash for weekly purchases of essentials like groceries and gas.
