In the past few months, we have been experiencing strange and unprecedented events one after the other. One of these that might not have made it onto your radar is the coin shortage. As business owners know, however, the national coin shortage was a huge pain to handle. Less coins in circulation from people staying at home and the production of coins slowing at the U.S. Mint both contributed to our lack of coins. This meant that many businesses were forced to request exact change or credit card transactions only for all their customers.
The biggest impact was on cash only businesses. If a business did not accept credit cards, debit cards, or checks, their cash only business was no longer able to provide change to their customers in the form of coins.
For those businesses who have yet to begin accepting credit cards, this is the type of situation that would warrant a change in that policy.
