LESSON PREVIEW
ABOUT THIS LESSON
About This Cashless Society ESL Lesson
Coins and banknotes were once an ordinary part of everyday life. Today, cards and phones are rapidly changing how people pay, and in some places cash is already becoming unusual.
This B1–B2 lesson explores the convenience of digital payments alongside questions about privacy, financial access and reliability. Students consider what happens to people who cannot use the payment systems that others take for granted.
Students test a cashless café against six different customers, create a fair payment policy, and finish by deciding whether shops should be allowed to stop accepting cash.
