There's an app actually in NL to find toilets, and it tells you their condition and the cost, open times, etc.

And if you have IBS, you can get a yearly toilet pass (EuroKey)... That gives you quicker? And one time cost access to toilets.
Wild shit honestly.
I know the US is hella behind in payment technologies, but can you tap your phone in NL to pay for toilets? I haven't carried cash for 15+ years in Canada. If so, I honestly like that system. At least I wouldn't encounter a group of homeless people shooting up in the timmies bathroom at 8pm.
You'd think so right, and everything else here is super tap to pay oriented... Most toilets aren't though, maybe the ones at the train station, but that's a whole other kettle of fish. You pay for that, then they give you a voucher back to go use at a store in the station. Nobody uses them, so it's just extra overpriced and hella dirty.
Honestly it's a scam all round.
