I think it depends on where you are more than your age. I very rarely carry a wallet on me and I am definitely not Gen Z. That being said, where I live, every legitimate (i.e. non laundering/tax dodging) business accepts paying by phone. I can use public transport by scanning my phone, I can prove my ID by showing my phone, I can claim medical benefits by using my phone, and every franchise has it's own loyalty app I can download on my phone.
Literally Home Depot is the only place left which doesn't have phone payments, and they really need to get with the fucking program. I wish more people would shame them for this.
Walmart is another weird one. They have phone payments but only using their app. Which is some real "company town" BS.
