Not sure about that. Consider that in Europe, credit cards are not as popular, perhaps in part because there's not much in the way of rewards programs. An oft-suggested reason for that is because card fees are legally capped pretty low in Europe.

You try to explain why you don't necessarily agree and in doing that you confirm everything the parent said. Very confusing.

They probably weren't talking about high interest but vendor fees instead
