Trying not to be cynical, but can’t help but think a factor in the “cashless” only payment test is yet more increased guest spending. Think it’s widely accepted that people tend to buy more when they aren’t physically parting with their bills and coins.
I’m Canadian and we tend to split between cash and credit whenever we travel. We use our MBs at WDW for some things and cash for others. I like having the option of being able to use cash when/where I want ... I would not want to deal with putting cash down on an account at the front desk etc.
That may be true, but I also have been avoiding retailers that don't take NFC/Apple Pay payments. The current environment of shady cashiers/skimmers/breaches leaves the consumer wide open not to mention the PITA it is to have to update CC info every 6 months because numbers are compromised.
