Four hundred and fifty responses were returned while fifty copies were not returned; the responses were categorized according to strongly agreed, agreed, strongly disagreed, disagreed and neutral with weight of (5,4,3,2,1) assigned to each category respectively to generate acceptable raw data for econometric analysis. The raw data were analyzed using cointegrated, ordinary least squares, autoregressive distributed lag, unit root and Grange causality; the result shows that POS has significant and positive impact on cashless policy in Nigeria.
