Most Dutch cards won't work on North American sites. Our cards have an IBAN listed which cannot be entered on American sites. Paying with just the numbers on the card is not possibile unless it is a credit card or smething like Revolut iirc, which is bascially using the unsecure cards the American way or the 2FA system you explained, but that's not most cards.
Dutch bank cards are now being replaced with Mastercard, unlike the old Maestro ones, they also have 16 digit numbers that can be used online.
Yeah they are, but they will not be able to pay online with just the code since they have the IBAN listed and not the 16 digit code.
The new system is better anyway, why do we need to go back in time?
The new cards have 16 digit numbers. I feel you are not even reading what I'm writing. You can easily find more info online about the new Mastercard based debit cards online. I know both ABN and ASN support online payments with the Mastercard versions
