Where I live it'd used to be possible to get a discount if you paid cash but it was deemed discriminatory against card holders and so it was banned. It's the same price regardless of payment method.

It removes the incentive for clients to use cash if a card option is available, makes them more used to paying by card, and hence decreases the competitiveness of merchants that don't offer card at all - until cards become so wide spread that many merchants don't even accept cash at all, like where I live.
A bit hostile towards merchants, but very nice for consumers imo.

It's nice for consumers who prefer to pay by card. It's hostile towards consumers who prefer to pay in cash.
Call me close minded but i see cash as an archaic, strictly inferior way of managing money. But to each their own.
