    And that’s the exact reason that less and less people are taking credit cards and only taking debit and ACH.

      not really. it’s that credit cards usually cost a lot more per transaction in fees to the merchant.

      People, or businesses?

      For the rare business where it’s (unfortunately) standard practice e.g. gyms, I just setup a new (free) checking account with my existing bank.

      Other than those rare, and “standarized” cases, they’d have to be critical to my ability to keep breathing for me to even consider using a check, or another payment method linked directly to bank, including a debit transaction that requires my PIN, or ever using my debit card online.
