Colorado was the first state to legalize marijuana for recreational use in 2012, and Connecticut was the last, approving recreational cannabis in June 2021.

Consumers in the United States provinces where cannabis has been legalized are usually above the age of 50. This demographic profile is predicted to drive cannabis demand throughout the world due to the increased risk of chronic diseases beyond 50 years of age and the effectiveness of cannabis in treating such disorders.

Banks have time and again reaffirmed their stand on not wanting to be associated with the cannabis market. Most of the banks in Canada and the US have declined to take a share of revenue from the cannabis market including marijuana, hemp or support businesses. A few state-chartered banks accept to bank the money but charge a punitive monthly fee. The lack of adequate banking options poses significant problems in accounting and diversion of funds. Vendors are, thus, required to have large sum of cash in hand regularly. In addition, issues with banks prevent institutional lending of any sort, due to which money amounted to cannabis related businesses is categorized into a private lending sector. In such case, lenders charge corresponding high-interest rates, finance charges and fees. This is anticipated to be one of the major restraining factors for the growth of global cannabis software market during the forecast period.
