I've been living in Germany for the past three years and did a ton of research about this then. Only use the Capitol one Visa card. It's the only card that does not charge a currency conversion or foreign transaction fee. Every other card out there charges some kind of fee.

Also to the person that says you need a chipped EC card in Germany to buy gas, you are wrong. A regular credit card works with no issues.

I was just telling my experience, because everytime I have driven through western Germany (through Denmark-Germany-Netherlands) and each time I went to Kiel, none of our regular credit cards worked at the gas stations.

My American card, buddies cards from Finland, Puerto Rico, and Canada did not work at the pump. We paid cash at all the gas stations in Germany.

Was a pain in the but since we were filling up a 30 gallon Chevy 2500 duramax diesel pickup.
