In fact, the consensus is that the cash infrastructure will remain ubiquitous and that it is up to payers and payees to agree on their payment method." That said, it's not hard to imagine that if you get to 90% or 95% cashless, a lot of retailers aren't going to want to bother with cash any longer.
