Better Than Cash Alliance

Economic Forums and Coordinating Bodies

The Better Than Cash Alliance is a global partnership of some eighty governments, companies and international organisations founded in September 2012 to accelerate the shift from cash to responsible digital payments in support of the Sustainable Development Goals, promoting efficiency, transparency, women's economic participation and financial inclusion. It is based at the United Nations, with the United Nations Capital Development Fund serving as its secretariat, and its members describe their goal as offering digital payment options that are better than cash rather than eliminating physical currency outright.
