Abstract

The prospect of a cashless society is starting to become a very real option in today's world. Traditional payment methods including cash and cheques are increasingly being seen as cumbersome, insecure to carry in large amounts and not always available at the point of need. APACS figures, released in February 2009, reiterated this consumer preference for card payments with the number - as well as the value - of card payments growing by 7.4% (6.8% by value) in 2008 over 2007 and the share of debit cards increasing to 73.5% from 71.7% in 2007. Alongside this, cash payments, which have been declining over several years, remained flat between 2007 and 2008. William Lorenz, chief operating officer, EntroPay, reports.

远离现金
在当今世界,无现金社会的前景开始成为一个非常现实的选择。包括现金和支票在内的传统支付方式越来越被视为笨重、不安全,不能大量携带,而且在需要的时候并不总是可用。2009年2月发布的亚太地区数据重申了消费者对信用卡支付的偏好,信用卡支付的数量和金额在2008年比2007年增长了7.4%(按金额计算增长了6.8%),借记卡的份额从2007年的71.7%上升到73.5%。与此同时,现金支付数年来一直在下降,在2007年至2008年期间保持平稳。EntroPay首席运营官William Lorenz报道。
