This is a young/old issue too.
Listening to a podcast interview with a mid 40's show runner in LA, so, the old guy spending his time with a bunch of young guys, who said that when he tries to pay back his colleagues for a meal or something, they roll their eyes if he offers cash.
For them, money is waving your phone in in the general direction of something.
Talked to a girl scout selling cookies near a college campus in front of a Starbucks and asked how business was.
I figured college students hurrying to class might not be the best crowd for guilt buying of shitty cookies.
In an exaggeratedly patient voice, she, all of ten years old, told me she accepted Venmo, and with the manner of a kindergarten teacher started to explain to oldme what that was.
Next day, same Starbucks, extremely aggressive twenties homeless girl with a dog as a prop, begging but essentially saying, pay me or the dog starves.
Her tagline:
I take Venmo.
