Arizona mandates cash transactions be rounded to nearest 5 cents, effective after ending penny production.
Arizona has enacted a law requiring businesses to round cash transactions to the nearest five cents, effective after the state ended penny production.
Amounts ending in 1 or 2 cents are rounded down, 3 or 4 up, 6 or 7 down, and 8 or 9 up.
The rule applies only to cash, not digital or card payments, and businesses must post notices.
Critics worry it could lead to unfair outcomes or act as a hidden tax, while supporters say it improves efficiency.
Washington state is considering similar legislation, reflecting a national shift toward phasing out the penny amid declining cash use and high production costs.
