I presume it's a case of "give me convenience or give me death!" (to quote the Dead Kennedys). They don't have to have a cash register or go to the bank with a cash bag. They don't have to train their staff in cash handling. Card payments are often quicker, especially in the age of PayWave.

Finally, many people don't know about the surveillance capitalist dystopia, or don't care. So hardly anyone uses cash anymore, except for tin-foil hat wearing freaks like me.

I very much doubt it's about...

AFAIK they pay fees on every EFTPOS transaction, and even higher fees on credit card/ PayWave transactions. I can't imagine the cost of banking cash at closing time each day would be higher than all that.
