They only offer cash in a very few markets, and really, credit/debit card is the preferred method to use.
You can obtain for example an American Express serve debit card which is a prepaid debit card if you don't want to use a traditional debit or credit card. There are many such cards like this but Amex sserve is just one example. They are also targeting the cash acceptance more towards first time customers. Is there any reason you would prefer to pay in cash? I say that but I personally prefer debit or credit even for a cup of coffee but I have other friends and family who still prefer cash.
