- Nearly all shops accept Visa, Mastercard and Bankcard. I operate a
- business and we usually receive more MasterCard transactions than Visa
- ones--MC is quite popular here. Not sure about ATMs, most of them
- accept Visa cards, so presumably they accept Mastercard too (Mastercard
- is offered by most of the major banks).
