The whole article throws data without meaning.

Data is not information. Is this the amount of the water taken out of reach of farmers? Probably not. Is it the amount of energy used for cooling? Nope because liters is not an appropriate unit of energy. Is it the cost? Nope because that must be in dollars. So it's data but not information. It can't be compared to an hypothetically allegedly more efficient system.

I'm in Australia and it's a mix. Some places add the surcharge to the bill and can use cc for as low as$1, some don't and don't accept payments that's less than 2 people's meals ( and also don't accept split bills).

But it's very very hard to find a place that's cash only. It comes to mind empanadas, so I got a laugh at the other reply about tamales.

No fees transfer takes seconds, as long as it's not international. People use it for buying groceries, clothes or paying for whatever they buy in the middle of the street from other people who are not businesses. Confirmation of payment from receivers end is immediate with a push on your phone.

All sellers can produce a QR code including receiver address and price to be payed. All bank apps scan and pay seamlessly.

Sorry but bank transfers are not 1st world exclusive, it's common place in 3rd world as well.
