Payment Acceptance at a Small Business
A customer at a farmer's market stall tries to pay for a $5 basket of apples. First, they offer to pay with a debit card, but the vendor, who only accepts cash, declines. The customer then offers a $100 bill, which the vendor also declines, stating they do not have enough change. Based on the legal requirements for payment acceptance, which of the vendor's actions is permissible?
A retail store is legally obligated to accept a customer's debit card for a purchase because the funds are drawn directly from a bank account.
