Once up and running, they became as commonplace as traditional paper money and metal coins. Checks were introduced around the turn of the century and has since become one of the most common ways to pay for goods and services; credit cards, first introduced by Macy's Department Store in New York in the 50s, is now such a common medium of exchange that nearly everyone in the U.S. has at least one.
