How do Americans Pay?

A new study by the website www.Business.org  shows most Americans use credit and debit as their form of payment for personal purchases.

Communications Specialist Madison Haggin says of the 500 consumers surveyed, nearly 35 percent use credit cards and 36 percent use debit cards in comparison to nearly 24 percent who use cash.

She says when asked which payment method is the safest, cash was king with nearly 48 percent, in comparison to nearly 30 percent for a chip reader and 16 percent a card swipe from a debit card or credit card.
