We should still issue European cards (now that I think of it, there were credit/fractioned payment cards in my country, Portugal, that weren't from Visa or Mastercard, their usage was just more limited to select shops, now they changed mostly to Mastercard, you can use them anywhere but the discounts/offers are still limited to certain shops...).

I guess tech writers can brush off those old articles and quotes for a new round of "Woe is me, the surprise $$$$ bill for this Location_Name Parent_Name" articles.

> I'm not aware of credit card providers
In the EU we are steering off the "cards" for direct payment systems like BLIK.

I was thinking about WERO. There are solutions under the BANCOMAT, Bizum and MB Way (Spain, Italy and Portugal) apps, but they still require a Visa or Mastercard card (for bank account validation and online payments/temporary credit card creation and management), there are cross-border transfers without the card flag already, and in-shop and online payments (through the system, not the Visa/Mastercard cards) are next (coming early 2027 according to a proof-of-concept from April 2026). In Northern Europe there are banks that issue cards that aren't from either Visa or Mastercard, but those are all from Norway and Denmark AFAIK.
