Personally it makes more sense to me to not deal with cash. Most people prefer card now and it makes you a lower target to be robbed if there's no cash
Plus banks are a pain to get to and do deposits. Cash is risky and costly to deal with. CC charges a fee, so maybe those costs are less visible as it’s skimmed right off the top, but many retailers just pass that on,
