Card use in corfu

Options
We are going to corfu this summer. Generally when I go abroad I never take cash and pay everything using my chase card. Does anyone have any experience of issues with using a card exclusively while in corfu?
It's just my opinion and not advice.

    Would recommend to take some Euros for emergency and tips etc.
    Also make sure you have a backup card in case your normal one stops working.

    I've got a backup card, my wife's 😀 in all seriousness though I also have an  additional debit card plus a credit card. I'm not a big tipper so won't need it for that. Actually just come back from Rome where all transactions were paid by card, hoping the same for corfu.

  • Corfu is Greece, so whatever is standard in the country will apply.
