Cashless payments have increased dramatically lately, specially during the COVID-19 “main years”. Still, paying in cash can be crucial as a resilience method (think internet, power, banking system outages). It can be used as a great tool to slightly improve privacy. Paying in cash at a cashier usually is an option, but machines handling cash could be preferable, for example:

• Elderly people might prefer a machine handling their coins as opposed to trying to count them themselves.
• People who prefer reduced social contact.
• Cash/coin enthusiasts who prefer cash payments.

Tag payment:cash:machine is suggested to map the status here. Possible values:

• no - All cash handling happens by humans only.
• yes - Machines are available for cash handling.
• cashier - Machines are available for cash handling at cashiers (often limited to coins).
• self-service - Machines are available for cash handling at self-service stations.

Currently mapped objects in Latvia - where green indicates a present cash machine, orange - explicitly tagged “no”.
