I'm not sure if the "no money" thing has ever meant literally no form of currency, especially when the pilot episode of TNG has Crusher buying pretty materials from the outpost.
She was supposed to steal them?
No. But since we don't see her bartering with the merchant, the Federation must have some type of value exchange system in place, i.e. money.
