Canada's central bank is urging retailers to continue accepting cash as a form of payment, even as they're asked to keep physical interactions with customers to a minimum. But the bank also "strongly advocates that retailers continue to accept cash to ensure Canadians have access to the goods and services they need," it said in a statement. "Refusing cash purchases outright will put an undue burden on those who depend on cash and have limited payment options." "If you give cash, you get cash," he said. "If you hand over cash for a payment, unless you paid the exact amount you are getting cash back."
