Cash Bill Pay Services and Payment Inclusion in the United States

Author

Abstract

Cash bill pay, a service that allows consumers to pay bills with cash at participating retailers, may be one way to promote payment inclusion in the increasingly digitized U.S. economy. With this service, consumers who prefer to use cash, or those without a transaction account, can have in-person, tangible experiences paying bills.
