I don't know where you're sitting right now. I'm sitting in Europe, and credit card transactions are quite common where I live. Europe is a big place. Even within the EU there is plenty of room for difference.

A generalisation like this is no better than the frequent occurrence of HNers posting articles headlined with "the nation" which mean "the USA".

It is not unreasonable to speak of Europe as a whole. Credit card transactions are common where I live, but not in most of Europe.
