Couple small places neat me are cash only operations. I don’t know why but in 2023 to be cash only seems a little suspect to me. Any legitimate reason?

    No credit card processing fees. No equipment to buy. No chargebacks. No fraudulent purchases. Less bookkeeping. Just keeps everything pretty simple.

    ​

    I am not advocating it but I understand it. I have also seen a rise in credit card only businesses. I feel like both have their advantages and disadvantages. but most likely you are losing business if you restrict how people can pay.

    The only entity they should worry about seeming “suspect” is the IRS. If they are happy, the it doesn’t matter.

      rise in credit card only businesses.

      Doesn’t everywhere have to accept cash as legal tender or is that a myth?
