</span><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'"><br></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">Abstract submission deadline: March 30, 2014

<p><span style="font-size: 16.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">CASHLESS SOCIETY<br>
</span><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">For centuries, coins and bills were the only options to make purchases and to transfer
money between people and organizations. The second half of the last century witnessed
the introduction of plastic cards, Electronic Fund Transfer, Internet banking, and pre-paid
payment cards all aimed at making payment more efficient. With advances in IT a
number of new payment solutions has emerged, including, e.g. premium SMS payments,
M-PESA, Pay Pal, Google Wallet, Swish, Bitcoin, Flatter, Square-Up, Seamless, and Klarna.
Many innovations offer advantages in terms of costs, security, and convenience, but they
also pose a number of challenges and risks related to, at least, technical standards, data
security, legal issues, and consumer behavior. Overall, these innovations are changing
consumers</span><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">’ perception and experience of money and paying</span><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">Innovation processes in payments are promoted by different groups of actors (like
financial institutions, software companies, merchants, and mobile operators) and by
international governmental agencies (like the European Central Bank). New payment
services attract attention in media, but they also trigger a debate on the cashless society.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">The development towards a cashless society affects our life. It will have an impact on the
actors in the payment eco-system, leading to a number of both anticipated as well as
unanticipated consequences on the individual, organizational, and society levels. These
consequences are of critical importance and need to be explored. We therefore stress
the importance of investigating a cashless society from multiple perspectives including
economics, technical, infrastructure, sociological, anthropological, design, and
information systems, to mention a few.
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'Calibri'">This roundtable will examine the consequences and impact of a cashless society from
multiple perspectives at different levels of analysis. Specifically, topics of interest may
