Q1 via @SharLivingstone: What changes do you expect with how you carry/use money in a post-pandemic travel world? #TTOT

A1 Post-Pandemic #travel. #Contactless use of credit cards is preferred (safer than swiping). Sometimes only for small amounts. Higher amounts need insert/swipe the card & pin. Take more than 1 credit card. Some automated kiosks or shops don’t take cash. Mobile payments #TTOT

A1 A bigger push to have card payment however not sure in countries where cash is still king. As a traveller, I would still want to have some cash on hand. Just incase. #ttot

A1: Not much will change. It will be "Same same, but different"!
I might use the smartphone & the NFC function more for payments. But I would have done that also without the pandemic. #TTOT https://t.co/91xxVGHBfJ

A1. I’ve been using mobile payments with Alipay more often recently. But that might more be a result of the banks removing my local atms #TTOT

A1 Yes, Sophie there's a push for credit/deitt cards esp. contactless. It's not easy to know where /what about this. We have to keep up with the destination country. Portugal inclined to insist on cards or mobile at the moment but you're right cash is always needed #TTOT https://t.co/XaeLFiAcTi

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @SharLivingstone A1 Plan to consider using All inclusive packages and in the event that I would like to participate in community tourism engage communities that are organized in associations and make an electronic transfer before traveling #TTOT

A1 I agree, Diana. It's so good to be able to pre-pay a lot of things & then not be distracted with all the money transactions. It's important what you're saying about viable organizations to avoid refund loss if needed. #TTOT https://t.co/CRwoej3bCL

A1 Oh yes, everyone on all sides is trying to do that. It's not just the germs. Even the national bus drivers in Portugal take a mobile payment. #TTOT https://t.co/4xY5gR3DZ5

A1: I think developed countries will mostly be cashless, but undeveloped countries or bartering economies will continue to use cash. #ttot

A1 It seems logical but actually since a lot of developing countries use more mobile phones than computers they tend to find ways to organize their payments contactless also. Haggling with cash/similar will never go out of style (I hope ☺️, I enjoy the contact! #TTOT https://t.co/T0YZ9WN0QA

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @SharLivingstone A1. I expect that people will be even more generous in not accepting a small amount of change, instead telling the retailer to stick it in the charity tin instead (most have one).
