For the past 7,000 years, humans have exchanged metal and paper objects in return for goods and services. However physical cash use is more than just our history. It's deeply engrained in our culture and an increasingly emotive subject for many. During the last 30 years the way we pay for things and move money has changed dramatically and the horizon of a potentially cashless society is now in view for the UK.
From tapping our way through Manchester's Metro system, paying our bills in our pyjamas or competing a house sale - cashless payments are prolific, safe and convenient for the majority of us and the lifeblood of our economy… There is however a deep and perhaps surprising seam of true cash dependence that we ALL need to be aware of.
David Avis & Adam Armstrong (AND Digital) will skilfully guide us through this often divisive topic. Sharing global trends and domestic issues to highlight why we as BAs should care and how we can help.
