Do young people in the Netherlands still pay with cash? In 2020, Millennials aged 25 to 34 years old, were most inclined to use electronic payment methods: 69 percent of all their POS transactions were contactless. Almost 40 percent of all payments done by 12-to-18-year-olds were done with cash money. The source, however, does not distinguish further within this age bracket. One can therefore wonder whether a 17-year-old still used as much cash money as a 12-year-old. As Dutch teenagers grew older, for example, they started to use more online banking functions.
