require the acceptance of cash as payment in certain transactions.

HB 1061 requires most retail businesses in South Dakota to accept cash payments for in-person purchases under $100, where the customer chooses cash and the seller is physically present. Businesses cannot charge higher prices for using cash, and the law applies only to face-to-face transactions meeting these conditions. Exemptions include credit unions, security deposits requiring credit cards, and airplane sales. The bill also mandates that state offices accept cash for public fees under $100 when paid in person.
