Poll: What Size Purchase Would You Use Cash Verses Plastic (Debit/Credit)?
There have been recent reports on the use of cash vs plastic, along with more data breaches at major retailers, and movement away from the magnetic credit card readers. This week I want to see at what point readers use cash or plastic for purchases.
Provided answers include options for those who use plastic almost exclusively, those who use plastic almost exclusively, four monetary tiers, and an unsure. The poll is in the right sidebar, the answers are presented in random order.
On Wednesday the 24th I’ll post about the reports on cash vs plastic, magnetic readers and the technology that may replace them.
