this is basically the Netherlands being weird.
almost every bank in almost every european country issues Visa/Mastercard debit cards that can work for ~everything that claims it wants a credit card.
- hnbad 4y agoI just checked all of my German debit cards and they're all Maestro, not Mastercard/Visa. So that's already two countries that don't typically issue compatible debit cards, not to mention the low penetration of credit cards in Germany, too. I probably know more people with PayPal accounts than credit cards.
- bananapub 4y agogermany is also weird in this regard, but I believe as of recently most of the current german Maestro cards are actually on the Mastercard network.
