"The move towards a ‘cashless society’ will disproportionately impact seniors who may struggle with technology and online banking, highlighting concerns about digital exclusion.
Many seniors are not comfortable banking online because they're not tech savvy, and they're concerned about online and credit card scams. In many cases, cash is all they're familiar with, and is their only way to make financial transactions.
Although online banking and digital transactions are convenient for many, digital systems also pose risks during outages and natural disasters, highlighting the importance of cash accessibility during emergencies."
