Payment Choice Alliance

The top priority of the Payment Choice Alliance is to ensure the British public get the Payment Choice they deserve.

How do the Alliance know what the British public believe they deserve?

WE ASKED THEM.

YouGov conducted a survey on behalf of the Payment Choice Alliance in early June 2023.

That survey revealed that only 3% of the UK adult population have stopped using cash entirely. This in turn means than over 50 million adults continue to use cash.

So cash remains of great interest to the vast majority of the British public.

The survey also told us that 88% of the public do NOT support the UK becoming a so-called “cashless” society.

And how about a UK Payment Choice Act?

The survey confirmed that 71% of the British public want a law put in place to guarantee they cash can use their cash, where and when they choose.

And that law is what the Payment Choice Alliance will work very hard to deliver!

The Payment Choice Alliance was very busy at the 2024 Labour Party Conference!
It was a GREAT event for the Alliance, with so many people supporting Payment Choice. And one of them was the Secretary of State for Scotland and Cabinet Member, Ian Murray. Ian is definitely against “cashless”, believing cash continues to have a vital role to play in the British economy - and for the British public. It’s wonderful to have a Payment Choice supporter in the Cabinet, at the heart of the British government.

The Payment Choice Alliance Meets MPs In Parliament!
12 February 2025

Neil Duncan-Jordan, Labour MP for Poole, was delighted to sponsor a MP Drop In event for the Payment Choice Alliance on February 12.
The event was well attended!
Here Neil talks to Ron Delnevo about his massive support of cash and Payment Choice. Neil naturally believes it’s vital that a law is passed in 2025, guaranteeing the British public can use their cash, when and where they choose.
The Payment Choice Alliance can’t help agreeing with Neil!



The Treasury Committee Recommendations on Legal Measures to Protect Cash Acceptance Are Expected Soon!
17 February 2025

Having started its work in December 2024, which included meeting with the Payment Choice Alliance, the Treasury Committee has been hard at work assessing input from around the UK. Last week they were in Darlington, finding out how much the local people and businesses care about cash. The Payment Choice Alliance - and the over 40 million British adults who have told us they want a law giving them the legal right to spend their cash, when and where they choose - eagerly awaits the Treasury Committees report, which should make clear that legislation is definitely required!
