Does the Netherlands accept credit cards? The Dutch do not use these very often. Just 0.03 billion of all seven billion payment transactions in hotels, restaurants, shops, bars, market stalls, petrol stations and service providers was done with a credit card. Debit cards transactions happened much more often. This is partly due to the relatively high use of contactless payment options in the Netherlands compared to other European countries.
