Europe is replacing visa and MasterCard and PayPal with a system that has no fees.
VISA and the rest have been scraping every transaction, like a grater on cheese, in Europe, now European citizens are going save billions. Actual billions.
Europe just gave everyone a raise. And American banks a reduction.
Canada should join Europe now, sooner.
