Cash or Card - how do you like to pay for your goods?

[sprite1950]

I normally pay by bank card for my goods because I find it easier but lots of people prefer cash. Since the pandemic many shops are refusing to take cash or cheques so bank card is the only option. How do you prefer to pay for your goods?

I prefer cash payment most of the time.
There is no such things as technical issue, when it comes to this payment method. Of course it all comes down to individual preferences here.

I don't trust card payment and there are too many horror stories, when it comes to card usage. I will probably switch to card payment sometime, but not anytime soon.

In the UK some shops will not accept cash at the moment because of the pandemic. They think the money will be infected.

I've heard of this, even here in Canada where I live. I like to use cash when I can so that way my Credit card bill isnt as high and it's always good to have cash on your hand in case you need it in an emergency.

I used to prefer cash all the time, but these days I don't really have a preference. Money's fine, cards are fine, so long as I can get what I went in for.

My first choice is to pay directly through the bank app. This will directly transfer funds from my bank account to the seller's bank account, without the involvement of the middle man. My second preferred way to pay is through mobile payment. I can just scan QR code and send the payment. it is super easy. If these two options are not available, I will use the card. Using cash is my last option

For me I personally like to use card only, my wallet is only designed to hold cards too so it's okay to have notes but loose change is no good.

In my country mostly there is use of cards, but some small shop only accept cash. So i have to use both.

I personally prefer to pay for goods using cash since it is the easiest and most common and convenient method. If you use credit card it will gain interest.
