I went to a store in my city that just opened a few weeks ago. They advertise as being paperless and cash free, and only accept debit/credit. I think it's the first time I went to a store that refused cash.

I don't travel a ton but I have not been on an airplane in the last decade that accepted cash for in-flight purchases. Debit or credit only.

My experience with short regional jumps operated by a subsidiary or third-party under a larger airline brand has been that they do cash-only while the medium- and long-haul flights actually operated by the large airline have been card-only.

AFAIK in Germany merchants have an obligation to accept cash. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bargeld#Rechtsfragen

Only to settle existing debt. If they say "No cash accepted" they could do their business that way (and have no customers). As an extension, gas stations are allowed to refuse large bills if they put out a sign (and the all do).

Costco doesn't take cash. Probably the biggest physical retailer that doesn't.
