    Quoted from Deaconblooze:

    I was glad to see my location games offered this option. I get $50 in quarters every time I go to the bank, which isn't often.. Sometimes I forget those quarters at home or in a different car. I forget to carry cash a lot of the time (and sometimes my wallet), so being able to play when I'm in a pinch is a huge plus!
    Knowing that the op takes a 4% hit will be enough for me to try to pay cash whenever possible, but I like having a backup plan.

    I totally get where you are coming from and can appreciate you looking out for your operator. Most people would probably not take their operators fees into consideration, so you are already nicer than the average player. But 4 cents on a $1 game or 2 cents on a $0.50 game is not going to hurt the operator too much. In fact, if PayRange can get even ONE extra game out of you, it will come close to offsetting the 4% hit they are taking. Of course, that is dependent on the number of games you play during a given visit.
