Some Muslims might say that credit cards are not allowed because
interest is charged and usury is condemned in the Koran.

when I was in Saudi Arabia it was primarily a cash economy. very few
establishments took credit cards because the card issuers (MasterCard,
VISA, et al) charge the establishments a few points for the privilege
of using the cards. This didn't allow for the custom of haggling over
the price.
