Swedish citizens are proudly one of the most technologically advanced nations in the world. This online population uses the web for most aspects of life and in fact only 3% of all financial transactions are made using cash. Swedes can use their mobile phones to pay for everything from groceries to major expenses. Most public buses don’t accept cash but require prepaid tickets, and many businesses and some banks have stopped dealing with cash altogether.

This trend is fueling the debate about the need for physical currency. What are your thoughts? how long before cash basically disappears?
