Supposed preference for cash

[edit]

This recommendation is stating both that digital payment systems are bad for developing countries and that such countries like digital payment systems a lot. I think you should pick one of the two versions about the underlying facts. In my opinion what you want to say is that, while WMF currently gives priority to online payment methods which can bring the most revenue (the next are in India), you'd like Wikimedia to support even online payment methods which may be more expensive for us, just for the sake of inclusivity.

It seems logical and reasonable, although it would be good to know which options and tools do we have to raise donations, independently of the mechanisms to achieve them. There would be a deep thinking about the ethics of the mechanisms to obtain donations.
