This varies by country; the normal way of paying for things in *some*
countries in Europe, like Germany, is with a bank transfer. In others,
like Greece and France, credit cards are much more common.

Languages aren't members of the euro-zone though; countries are. Is
"French" a member of the euro-zone (France) or not (Canada)? Etc.
Obviously it makes no sense for a French-speaking Canadian to donate via
a German bank account, since that would involve international
bank-transfer fees.
