Yes, I agree, I was going to write the same. But to be honest, I like cash. The feeling of the cash flowing out of your hand is much more palpable than when you use a card :) In Switzerland there is a national app for sending cash to friends that is really handy and popular (TWINT)

I prefer using credit card, as it's easy to lose track of how much I'm spending with cash. With card, I have a statement at the end of the month so I can see what I have spent.

An app for sending cash? How does that work exactly? Out of curiosity.

Yes, I meant money. Sorry, english is not my first language... It uses the phone number and is linked to your bank account. So it is an automated and instantaneous way of sending money to another swiss bank account. You can also ask someone for money and they can agree to transfer the sum.

Not a problem, I feel bad now for having asked. My confusion was actually more from that being fairly common app now in America (CashApp, VenMo, PayPal, etc.) and so wasn't sure if you were describing something unusual from my perspective or simply weren't aware or...

In any case, it's mostly fine to use "cash" to mean "any form of cash", although I guess this case in particular was just barely ambiguous enough for me to be confused.

I assume they mean for sending money instead of the actual physical notes or coins.
