On the HK side, following Visa acceptance a few months back, MTR now accepts Mastercards and Unionpays https://www.hongkongcard.com/forum/show/48425

So a Visa/Mastercard is now good for MTR and bus (acceptance is now getting quite good). Still a no for minibuses (Octopus) or taxis (...) (there's Uber...).

Macau can follow if they want to boost tourism into non-Chinese tourism into the suburbs - though, given how Macau is set up, is that actually a development aim?
Casino buses are good for most tourism areas.
