Cashless

Beim Coop im Bahnhof Stadelhofen überwiegen die Self-Scanning-Kassen stark: Eine ganze Reihe von – aus dem Gedächtnis geschätzt – rund fünfzehn solcher Kassen steht einer einzigen bedienten Kasse gegenüber. Etwa bei der Hälfte davon kann man noch mit Bargeld bezahlen, die anderen sind bezeichnet mit „nur Kartenzahlung“.

Wobei dies nicht mehr ganz stimmt: Stattdessen sind diese Kassen jetzt kurz und knackig beschriftet mit „cashless“. Was natürlich Fragen aufwirft: Weshalb plötzlich Englisch? Was war an der anderen Bezeichnung nicht gut? Ist es wohl so, weil viele Leute mit TWINT, Apple- oder Google-Pay (mit Smartphone oder gar Uhr) – also gar nicht mit Karte – bezahlen? Oder um die vielen (?!) ausländischen Kunden anzusprechen?

Aber vielleicht ist Englisch halt auch einfach cooler …

as much as electronic banking is convenient, i always keep some cash on me (it’s easy to find cos fren gives me cash for her share when i pay household bills online)

we should always have a plan b, or scatter eggs across several baskets etc. so i have more than ine card with more than one bank, and have cash for when the world goes to shit (as it regularly does) individuals need a way to carry on.

and relying on a very unreliable nbn would be a *national* security mistake on a par with buying US subs.

Most of them read as if they’re written by people (or, ahem, software) who’ve never set foot in the country. We’ve been producing Unseen Japan for almost seven years now. During that time, the country…

Japan’s households reduced their collective stash of cash at the fastest pace on record last quarter as they sought to cope with rising costs of living, according to the latest data by the Bank of Japan. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/03/21/economy/japan-households-slash-cash/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #economicindicators #inflation #cashless #investments

They are coming to enshittify money. Fight for cash. Don’t let them take it away.

Cash represents money that doesn’t cost money to use. It is a public good. All people can use cash There is no public good electronic transaction. (In the UK bank-to-bank transfers are free and easy by law. No reason to have Zelle or Venmo, not so in the US) We must protect cash.

Public libraries bother digital publishers because someone can read the book without paying for it. Cash bothers banks and big tech companies because you can spend it without paying them. Banks, credit card companies, and big tech (think ApplePay. SamsungPay, etc), want to charge you money for you to use your money. They also get transaction data that they can monetise in various ways (selling to you, selling the data, etc).

I experienced this last week. In the US it’s still free to deposit a paper check, but virtually any “wire” or electronic transfer has a fee. I signed a home equity line of credit and I was getting some proceeds. I had 2 options: “electronic check” or wire transfer. Wire transfer costs $20. “Electronic check” was free.

“Electronic check” is when they email me a PDF and I print it. Then, I take photographs of the printout with my bank’s mobile app for depositing checks. Takes more than a day to clear, but totally free.

Don’t let them take cash away. Fight for it. Use it some so people can see it being used.

Yesterday night I left a restaurant and I went to eat somewhere else because after having a seat I found out that the restaurant was only offering QR menus and was "cashless". The funny part: "Cash tips are welcome".

QR menus are a scourge of the present times.
