Travel / Tourism Do I need cash?

I will be visiting Luxembourg for the first time. Yoo hoo! I heard that Germany usually accepts cash only at shops which really stunned me in 2025. How about Luxembourg? I am not sure how much time I will spend in the city but I may go to local shops or something as a tourist. Can I just use a debit card? Another question: Pickpocketing for cash or mobile, how worrying is it when it comes to these kinds of crime?

No cash needed. Just be mindful that Amex is not accepted at a few places. Visa and MasterCard work everywhere

Totally second the Amex...kept on trying to use mine out of habit...Their slogan of "accepted everywhere" does not include Luxembourg.
