Can I have cash back in a store or supermarket in Denmark as it's done in the States?
Can I walk in a grocery store in Denmark and after buying some stuff ask for withdraw cash by paying with credit card (i.e., as it's done in the US supermarkets)?
Best Answer
As I understand it in most places cashback is only likely to be available with local debit cards.
Local Debit cards generally charge a flat fee per transaction so it's not a problem for the merchant to give cashback. Credit cards on the other hand usually charge a substantial percentage fee so merchants are unlikely to want to give cashback.
Debit cards aren't really standardised arround the world but the debit card issuers often work with a credit card network for international acceptance. So when you use your Debit card abroad it is likely to be treated as-if it was a credit card.
