Why don't Germans use credit cards?

Attached: card.jpg (640x480, 24K)

because most shops here don't accept them
Germany is a cunt full of old people who are scared of new technology

Because i dont want my bank to know everything i buy
Privacy is definetly more important than convenience

when people say "credit cards" do they also mean debit cards?

this sounds something a german would ask

>unwillingness to go into debt
>debitcards are accepted everywhere
>lots of places dont want to pay creditcard fees and wont accept them
>credit score isnt a thing to be concerned about

But isn't a debit card less secure than a credit card? A debit card is a direct extension of your bank account, so if someone finds it, they can use all of your money right away and it's gone, like cash. However, with a credit card, it's on "credit" and you can dispute charges with the credit card company

lol cunt
>hurrr im so scared of bank knowing what i buy
literally no one cares about you faggot

When I was in Czech Republic they also do not accept debet cards in a lot of places, for me it seemed strange. In Latvia we accept debet cards in every shit place.

Usually there is a limit. After you reach a limit (mine is 30 euros), you have to enter the PIN code into the terminal.
