If not credit cards, then what do Europeans use?

In France at least, credit card are far more often used than wired transfer etc.

Sane wire transfers, direct debit, and a multitude of other things. Credit cards are on the rise though.

On the other hand, even debit cards are usually called credit cards, at least in france (either that or "carte bleue" which is the french standard for these things).
