A quick lookup later, that's U+202F or "narrow no-break space".
cash_in is picky about this, and won't take plain ASCII space as

It probably should, based on the Robustness Principle: "be conservative in
what you send, be liberal in what you accept".
The contrary argument is that people tend not to like "best guess"

Best Guess is relative.  Breaking because of "ASCII Space" instead of "narrow no-break space" is definitely Not Right.
