>The problem IS businesses refusing cash.
They legally cannot, at least not in the USA, and I doubt in most countries. Thanks to the legal tender laws, businesses cannot legally refuse the legal tender, especially in its cash form. Once a deal is made and cash is offered, service must be rendered or it is considered stolen. A fun way to exploit this (before coin machines) was to go to tow truck lots, offer pennies, and then report grand theft auto to the local sheriff when they refused.
- heavyset_go 5y agoCash is only legal tender for debts. I can run a business that refuses cash as long as services or products are not rendered before payment. I can say that if you want to eat at my restaurant, you need to use credit or debit cards only.

- ddingus 5y agoDo patrons pay after eating? Debt If they pay prior, not debt. And yeah, there are times I would not choose your establishment and recommend others avoid it as well. Being able to use cash is a basic thing I value highly. I realize we disagree, and we get to do that too. No worries, but just know while you do you, I'm doing me. Wish it were different.
