This is the first time I'm hearing about Cashless society...how about you?

A cashless society describes an economic state whereby financial transactions are not conducted with money in the form of physical banknotes or coins, but rather through the transfer of digital information (usually an electronic representation of money) between the transacting parties.[SUP][2][/SUP] Cashless societies have existed, based on barter and other methods of exchange, and cashless transactions have also become possible using digital currencies such as bitcoin. However this article discusses and focuses on the term "cashless society" in the sense of a move towards, and implications of, a society where cash is replaced by its digital equivalent - in other words, legal tender (money) exists, is recorded, and is exchanged only in electronic digital form.
Such a concept has been discussed widely, particularly because the world is experiencing a rapid and increasing use of digital methods of recording, managing, and exchanging money in commerce, investment and daily life in many parts of the world, and transactions which would historically have been undertaken with cash are often now undertaken electronically.[SUP][3][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP] Some countries now set limits on transactions and transaction values for which non-electronic payment may be legally used.[SUP][5][/SUP]
 

Yes, we have been moving in that direction for at least 30 years now. I have my retirement money electronically deposited in my bank and I draw from that account via debit card.
 
Where have you been? I'm a 71 y. o. geezer and I've been cashless for a few years. One of the reasons I went cashless is change. No, not that kind change, but nickles, dimes, quarters. You can't get rid of them. Banks refuse to deal with a huge pile of metal. I have a huge glass vat filled with coins. So going cashless means no more unwanted change. Plus, I'm no longer a "mark"-no money in my wallet. Although, I do keep enough of the green stuff to get me through a monster snow storm and power outage, as well as other "catastrophes".
 

I use my credit card for nearly everything, and pay it off once a month. I do keep a small amount of cash for when it seems more practical, but hardly ever use it.
 
A "cash-less society" is not mentioned in the Bible BUT Bible-believers have known this was coming for decades because the Bible does provide enough prophetic evidence to conclude that a one-world currency or cashless society will exist under the rule of the Anti-Christ during the "end-times" or "last days". It's the only way the prophesied Anti-Christ (led by Satan) will be able to rule the entire world.

In fact, 95% of sales in Sweden are now cashless and Denmark has a goal of eradicating all cash by 2030. Swedish banks don't take cash or give out cash anymore. It's all digital currency. The chip...eek. Once we're cashless the government, Big Brother, can track us and monitor us so they like "cashless" and the credit card companies like collecting fees and interest and penalties so they like cashless. So there is a push all over the world for this. Right now in some countries in Europe it's against the law to make a cash transaction over a certain amount like 1000 euros. They say it's so they can catch thieves but we know that it's moving toward what it tells us in the Bible.

Bible-believers have read about this since the beginning of when the Bible was printed. The Anti-Christ system must be a system like this in order to control what we buy and sell.

"Once entrenched in power, the beast (Antichrist) and the power behind him (Satan) will move to establish absolute control over all peoples of the earth to accomplish their true end, the worship Satan has been seeking ever since being thrown out of heaven (Isaiah 14:12-14). One way they will accomplish this is by controlling all commerce, and this is where the idea of a one-world currency comes in. Revelation 13:16-17describes some sort of satanic mark which will be required in order to buy and sell. This means anyone who refuses the mark will be unable to buy food, clothing or other necessities of life. No doubt the vast majority of people in the world will succumb to the mark simply to survive. Again, verse 16 makes it clear that this will be a universal system of control where everyone, rich and poor, great and small, will bear the mark on their hand or forehead. There is a great deal of speculation as to how exactly this mark will be affixed, but the technologies that are available right now could accomplish it very easily.

Those who are left behind after the
Rapture of believers will be faced with an excruciating choice—accept the mark of the beast in order to survive or face starvation and horrific persecution by the Antichrist and his followers. But those who come to Christ during this time, those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life (Revelation 13:8), will choose to endure, even to martyrdom." ~ gotquestions.org

I can't remember the last time I used cask, even for a small amount. It's at lrast two weeks.

When I don't shop on line I pay by contactless card or "walk through" phone (NFC).
 
What is a contactless card and "walk through" phone"?

A contactless card is a normal card which you simply pass near a card reader. A walk through phone is just hat. As you go through the checkout your on line account - GooglePay, PayPal, etc - is automatically debited.

A more sophisticated extension of the latter scans you trolley as you leave the store and automatically debits you -no checkouts, no queuing.

There are anti fraud protocols in place.
 
Yes I've known about a potential total ''cashless society'' for years.

As many have said , people have already for quite a few years used Electronic methods of payment...my husband is one of them who pays for everything using contactless methods..cards, and phone etc.. rarely ever uses cash

I pay for items using Debit and Credit cards ( the latter not so much) .. but I also still like to use cash also for some things ..I hate the idea that BB is watching everything I spend..
 
Yes, we'll never be truly cashless I doubt. News vendors, slot machines, and some shops don't offer contactless, or set a minimum limit.
