Using the name John Smith should be fine.  I don't remember ever
being carded at a conference.

Using cash might be a hassle.  What if they don't have a cash box?

BTW, the counter person at my local post office explained to me
recently that they're pushing for credit card payments rather than
cash, because it's cheaper for them to process.  I find that really
hard to believe, but it's the story I'm getting.
