Shop, Eat and Celebrate the Stress-Free Way with Cash This Holiday Season
Withdraw Cash Wednesday on November 21 Helps Consumers Control Holiday Spending and Avoid Racking Up Debt

SIOUX FALLS, S.D.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Get ready to shop, eat and celebrate the stress-free way with cash this holiday season. Today ATMIA, the global trade association for the ATM industry, announces the second annual Withdraw Cash Wednesday event which will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 21, 2018 at ATMs nationwide. The Withdraw Cash Wednesday movement encourages consumers to develop the habit of getting cash for weekly spending on Wednesdays to control spending and avoid racking up debt, especially during the holidays.

“Cash continues to be the No. 1 way people like to pay today, despite the growing use of digital payments,” said Mike Lee, chief executive officer for ATMIA. “By encouraging consumers to get cash every week, and especially on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and the holiday shopping season kick off, Withdraw Cash Wednesday helps consumers to spend wisely and within budget, rather than increasing credit card debt,” added Lee. “Supporting Withdraw Cash Wednesday is a stress-free, money-saving way of enjoying spending during the holidays and throughout the new year that’s coming.”
