In Norway, next to Sweden, accepting cash is mandatory and you can get fined (after a warning it seems) if you don't. The reasoning is we don't want everything

In Norway, next to Sweden, accepting cash is mandatory and you can get fined (after a warning it seems) if you don't.
The reasoning is we don't want everything to break down just because the power grid or backbone networks breaks down.
- ptr 7y agoUnfortunately a lot of things tend to break down anyway when the power is gone: doors won't open, PoS machines won't work, etc. What might work is actually cell phone payments due to the towers having power backup.
