Did you manage in Munich without cash at all? My expectation would have been that you needed cash regardless to pay for (most) small things (coffee, bakeries etc. etc.). Credit or even debit card use is not very widespread, essentially the only time I use mine is at ATMs and to pay online for services that don’t support direct debit.
