It varies on the place you are going to. Ask in advance - and make sure you have the cash alternative if in doubt: I've got so used to paying cash in Austria that anywhere which takes cards is a pleasant surprise

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Welcome. Was in Maria Alm a couple of weeks ago. In town I used cards in shops, in a hotel for a meal and at the ski hire shop (where I also bought my lift pass). I didn't actually try to use a card to pay on the hill. I assumed it would be cash there. But no problems that I found in the town.

Just an update- the nedderhutte in Obergurgl now take cards, so you can party even harder!

IME most of the resort shops take cards, and so do lift pass offices.
But very few of the mountain huts do.

Yet, a couple of years ago, the lift pass office in St Anton would take credit cards but not prepaid debit ones. We had to go to the machine round the corner and withdraw a fist-full of cash and then pay with that.

Generally in resort cards are no problem, on the hill many places will only take cash (the ones most likely to take card are the big restaurants in prominent lift stations).

There are a couple of restaurants in Flachau that don't take credit cards, one of them is one of the best arround
