I'm not sure what I said conflicts with that.

If we made access to prepaid debit cards dead simple (i.e. going to a bank and getting a debit card for the equivalent amount of cash) easy for small amounts, then they would not only get access to the cashless shops in town but they'd also be better served online and could access cheaper goods through online retailers.

This gives the individual an easy way to get around it without penalizing small businesses. Larger businesses likely all take in cash without issue.
