Abstract
The research paper is the first part of the mixed method approach to determine whether Australia is ready to become a cashless society. First, the rising trend of digital payment methods is investigated, followed by a discussion of the government policies on digital payments and a survey of the level of adoption in cashless transactions. Next, a list of cashless society readiness indicators was established, and a research model for the research topic was introduced. Data from the Global Findex database and statistical data from the Reserve Bank of Australia were analysed to highlight Australia's readiness for adopting a near-cashless society within the research period. As a mixed-method approach was adopted for the research topic, the next step is to interpret quantitative and qualitative data using an integrated approach to provide a better picture of what degree and over what period Australia will become a cashless society in the future.
