The term Swedish rounding is used mostly in Australia , where such a method has been practised since the 1990s. Details Rounding becomes necessary where low denomination coin s in a currency are withdrawn or otherwise made unavailable, but the currency s subdivisions remain the same. Since it may not be possible to make exact change for a purchase, rounding the total bill to the lowest available denomination of coinage is required if a customer is paying in cash . If payment is being tendered using credit card , debit card , EFTPOS or cheque , no rounding is necessary. The practice was introduced in Sweden following the removal of 1 and 2 re coins from circulation in 1972. It is called resavrundning , meaning re rounding . A similar system was later adopted by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand in 1990, when the 1 and 2 cent coins were removed from circulation, and the Reserve Bank of Australia which did the same for its own currency in 1993.
