Devoir Anglais - The Bar Where your Cash is Worthless

The document that I am about to study is an article entitled « The bar where your cash is worthless », from BBC NEWS which was published in 2018.

It deals with cashless establisments in South London

Nowadays, thanks to digitalisation and technology advances, many systems have evolved such as payments methods for example. Several establishments and even big companies are using cashless payment’s methods.

Through this article, we are going to see why cashless establisments are a good and a safer alternative

1) I am going to talk about the reasons that pushed establishments to turn to cashless payments methods

2) And on the other hand, I will talk about the assets of such a change

A south London pub called « The Crown and Anchor »

In a nutshell, through this article we understand that cashless payments methods are a very good alternative for establishments to prevent theft but also because we live in a society in which everything has evolved so it is easier for workers.

As far as I am concerned, I think that cashless establishments are a very good idea because as the article said « this is the digital age » I used to pay with cash but now, since I have a credit card I almost pay everything with it, even little amounts.

And in my opinion, I think this is easier for companies because they don’t have to count all the money and spend time to take care of it.

It reminds me of the company Amazon which created the Amazon Go System which is a a different system but similar because here there is no cashier. It’s the same concept. The aim is to win time and facilitate the process. Moreover, the consumers are only using cashless payments methods because they pay with their phone and electronical wallets such as Apple pay and Android pay
