I've never seen cash accepted at self checkout in Belgium or the Netherlands and that still doesn't take away at how inconvenient cash is overall.

Cash is insanely inconvenient, cannot be used at self checkout (which is the only reason I don't despise doing groceries), is more risk carrying big amounts and not even accepted above a certain amount in most stores.
We just need an actual Visa/Mastercard EU edition.
Currently there are only alternatives online like Klarna (and iDeal in the Netherlands). The only way to do it in store is paying cash sadly
I'm living in the Netherlands and it just works here, even paid for a domain name and with my NL details. Also can't you just use a VPN to bypass this?
I don't know man, I installed the app and it just works?
This is not the app with AI, this one just works based on barcodes.
You need to be where the people are and I don't fault them for using a cheap option. Don't let perfect stand in the way of good.
The small cost of cloudflare compared to changing your purchasing forever is quite a trade no?
I'm unsure if you're looking at the same app. There is 1 using AI and there is this one that just works using barcodes and their database.
That's really too bad, like I won't use Epic Games services like ever but it'd just be great to see more companies than just steam supporting Linux more
Maestro is just mastercard tho :(
Well I use Revolut and even get my salary paid on it so I'd say its good. Bunq is a stay away thing, too dangerous. Klarna is very bad with their buy now pay later stuff putting people in debt, N26 is more expensive than Revolut iirc so I didn't try it.
Do take in mind all of these still use Visa/Mastercard for payments which is american
I would rather use cash than ever touch something using blockchain technology
