Cash Welcome relies on donations from the public and from industry to continue advocating for our right to choose how we pay.
Please sign and share our change.org petition asking for:
1) Guaranteed access to cash in our local communities.
2) Guaranteed right to pay for food and groceries with cash.
Physical cash must be welcome throughout our economy to ensure that everyone can participate.
Without cash, our economy is weaker because retailers and consumers are more vulnerable to computer failures, bank system outages and even online criminals. Without cash, our privacy is at risk because all our transactions are recorded. Banks, lenders, insurers, search companies and others may ask for our transaction history or use our transaction information in ways we don’t understand.
With cash, everyone can budget easily, set limits and understand what’s going on, without fees and other parties in the transaction. Cash bank notes are generally cleaner than plastic credit or debit cards says the Royal Australian Mint and other recent studies.
