That’s because Italy’s Central Bank has blocked electronic payments, including credit cards, at the tiny city-state.

It’s reported the Bank took the action because the Holy See hasn’t yet fully complied with European Union safeguards against money laundering.
                 
The Vatican says it’s working to solve the problem.
