Why Cash?

Nowadays we are used to the so called “plastic money,” but as you all know we mainly deal with cash at Eurochange. And even many people could think that cash is dying we are going to see some reasons why to use cash instead of credit or debit cards.

 

Safety

 

Despite many people thinks that cash is less safe than credit the reality its quite de opposite. Studies show that most robberies and scams are made with credit cards or online banking. Also, even if you lose or get your cash stolen, it is just the amount you carry the money that is “at risk”. On the other hand, all your savings can be at risk if you get your bank app cloned or your phone stolen with your passwords saved.

 

Opportunities

 

Cash it is the most accepted currency in the world. We know cash is not a currency, but you get when we mean. Some countries are trying to get raid of the cash, but even in those countries cash is accepted. But also, there are other countries or places where they do not have the infrastructures or the technology to accept credit cards. And one small detail, you can do any transaction in cash no matter when and where, but you need electricity and internet to be able to pay with your credit card. Seems not important, but it is.

 

Privacy

 

Sometimes we think of privacy to the ability to do something wrong without anyone knowing, but that’s not it. Many people value their privacy just because they want to have it. We see everyday with the phone apps that you must allow them to track you. All that it is because privacy it’s a valuable thing. With cash, you have 100% privacy. Nobody tracks you; you can buy anything you want without anyone knowing what you decide to spend your money with. Also, you are outside the grind, which it means, no targeted advertisement or being part of studies.

 

Control 

 

With cash we control what we spend, we can not spend more than we have, while with credit cards all your savings are available to be spend. Impulsive purchases are mostly done with credit cards, by the time you go back and check your account it is when you realize how much you spent. In the meantime, by using cash you know how much you have left at any moment.

 

Information

 

This one refers mostly to currency exchange which is what Eurochange does. People are used to pay with their bank cards all over the world with different currencies, while your bank account has your own currency. While most businesses accept overseas cards, the exchange rate at the moment of the purchase is the one you bank provides. So, you don’t really know how much you are paying or if you are getting overcharge for something unless you start doing math, and even then, most times is too late. If you exchange your cash to the currency of the country you are visiting you know exactly how much you changes and how much things cost, therefore you can decide whether to buy something or not having all the information.
