There's quite a lot of variance across the country of Europe.
Bank transfers are indeed common but implying that payment cards are not is a bit of a misnomer - and the (buyer) protection offered by the card networks is much higher.
I guess my point is, that even in Europe, accepting only Bank transfers is going to limit your client base fairly significantly and to a sizeable number of people will be considered a signal of how much they can trust the vendor.
Yeah that stuck out for me too. Europe consists of a huge number of different countries.
And what the GP was saying is not at all my experience in my country, which is also in Europe.
Broad statements about Europe as a whole are often going to be very inaccurate for many of the countries in Europe.
