Cashless payment a big issue for vendors

By Earle Gale in London | China Daily | Updated: 2018-12-05 07:05

The United Kingdom-based international charity The Big Issue is equipping some of its street-corner vendors with contactless card readers in response to changing trends that mean many people now leave their wallets at home and few carry "spare change".

The organization said people wanting to support the charity, which helps the homeless, called for the move.

The Big Issue, which was founded in London in 1991 and which now operates on four continents, lets homeless vendors earn money by selling its eponymous magazine.
