Hi cash lovers,

https://www.change.org/BankingAndCashGuarantee

You signed our 'Save our cash' petition and together we stopped the previous Morrison government banning cash transactions over $10,000. Now a senate committee is investigating bank branch closures and cash availability in local communities. Last week we spoke to Senator Linda White from the committee who committed to including our petition and submission in the committee's deliberations. You can make a submission and see submissions here.

Please sign and share our new petition calling for an Australian Banking and Cash Guarantee:

https://www.change.org/BankingAndCashGuarantee

Millions of Australian consumers and businesses trust and rely on cash for their everyday needs and for budgeting purposes. Even Australians that don’t attend banks or use cash regularly need access to face-to-face banking services and physical money sometimes.

Without a guarantee of access to full banking services and physical cash and a guaranteed right to use cash to buy food and essentials:

·         Local economies are weaker and vulnerable to system outages.

·         Many vulnerable people are effectively excluded from the economy.

·         Businesses are harder to manage. 

Our new petition calls for an Australian Banking and Cash Guarantee that includes these rights:

1)      All Australians must be able to have reasonable local access to cash and full banking services. 

2)      All Australians must be able to choose cash when paying for food and essentials at physical retailers.

Thanks and yours sincerely

Jason Bryce
