Bill > HB2631

This bill amends Arizona's laws to require retail businesses with physical locations in the state to accept cash as a form of payment for goods and services valued at $100 or less, and prohibits them from charging a fee or penalty for using cash. The bill provides a private right of action for individuals who are denied the right to use cash or charged a fee, with damages of up to $1,000 per violation or $5,000 per person. The bill exempts written contracts between parties that dictate the acceptable form of payment, as well as online sales of goods and services.
