Where? Germany? In France I don't know what is the regulation but still many places will ask for minimum charges, sometimes around 10€.

In the UK I sometimes pay for a single Banana by card, 50p (0.6€).

When I do, I wonder if the highest carbon footprint was from the payment processing or the banana processing!

Germany but if there's an actual law it's probably EU-wide. I haven't found one but I have found rumors that PSD2 banned minimum charges. I guess everyone is complying to a phantom law.
