Latest News -  Paper money is becoming passe as the year comes to an end. The New Year brings in the promise of India going cashless with the population of 1.3 billion being pushed into a digital economy.

Today many users are being exposed to plastic money for the first time. Even the most learned people make mistakes in the digital world and that can prove very costly. Hence, for first-time users, it is a minefield out there and negotiating it needs a lot of tact.

Earlier this year, 3.2 million credit and debit card details, with a bulk of them from India's largest banker the State Bank of India, allegedly got compromised and till date, the investigating agencies have not been able to make much headway.

In a country where, according to UN figures, about 287 million adults are still illiterate how safe is it to indulge in cashless transactions?
