- gusgus01 2y agoDiner's Club is equivalent to Discover card and is at least somewhat present in European countries. I don't know official numbers but I've seen it often enough and have used it once or twice.
- petesergeant 2y ago“Amex is virtually unknown in most of Europe” doesn’t match my experience. Most major European economies have AmEx and AmEx issues many local cards to them
- lmz 2y agoDoesn't Discover have agreements with UnionPay and JCB?
- awad 2y agoFun fact: AMEX has been involved in international payments in one way or another for more than a 100 years and the AMEX card was the first international charge card, launched the same year as the original BofA Visa Card.
