No cash at Colchester

I know a lot of people will moan about this, but I'm hoping more clubs (as well as other businesses) go in this direction. Contactless everything makes for a much more streamlined experience & takes away all of the fuss of having to pay, as well as speeding queues up. Good for retail/hospitality workers too who no longer have to check notes, mess about with change in tills or wait for customers to get the correct money out etc.

I use contactless wherever I can and carry as little cash as possible. Unfortunately that’s easier said than done coming back for home games when there isn’t even a free cashpoint in Burslem let alone chip and pin machines.

I think this will cause ppl perhaps not to go. There is still a lot of ppl that use cash, just look at the ages of fans sitting around you at our next home game. I understand that with handling cash there are costs of handling and also the temptation of theft.

Ive posted an extract from Shrewsbury fans forum titled, how could this happen. This would be a way to resolve that problem

Will card readers be issued to the homeless?

Will charity boxes be swipe enabled?

Will everyone be granted a bank account no matter what their circumstances?

Markets/car boots/street vendors/school fairs/instant reissue of cards on loss...... just a few of the relatively minor problems..... add in the costs of using a card abroad..... rubbish exchange rates/high bank charges/certain cards unacceptable etc.

An old adage...... if a computer can write it it can also rewrite it.

The obvious problem is system failures/power outages/hacks.
