Wow. You travel to a different part of the world without doing basic research. Hope you did not try stuffing USD on machines.

I would never expect a Western European country to not accept Visa and Mastercard. I say this as an Eastern European. But I do remember that in Germany (and Austria) it's not that accepted to pay by card.
