So I rocked up to a poetry slam at the Rosemount but it was $10 cash only to watch. So I went to the bar and bought a pint on my phone instead.

    It is much harder to hide an EFTPOS transaction from the ATO.

      Less nefariously: it’s a poetry slam, organised in their spare time and making no profit, and they don’t want to go to the effort and expense of getting a bank account, setting up a merchant account, and buying a card reader.
