Cash handling is not free either. Large amounts require security or increased risk.

Risk doesn't cost money in the way payment processing costs money.

Risk is the expectation of incurring a cost, payment is the realization of a cost. So I think they're very interchangeable.

Unless you keep all your cash collected under the pillow it does cost money to deposit it at the bank.
