Taxi from CDG (Cash or Credit)?

I will arrive in Paris on Tuesday (26 November) - CDG Terminal 2
Is it possible to use a credit card for my taxi ride to my hotel (Châtelet-les Halles)?
I understand this is a 50 Euro flat rate (no tip required)
I also understand that I will only accept a ride from the designated taxi queue

Please advise
Thank you!

All taxis are supposed to take credit cards. Sometimes a car has a “broken” credit card machine and the driver will accept only cash. Just tell the taxi dispatcher that you need a driver who accepts credit cards.

Thanks so much! This is very helpful to know that I can request a credit card option

Even after you make the taxi line manager aware you want a cab that will take a card, as you are showing the taxi driver the written out address for your hotel I'd also show him your credit card and ask, "OK?".

Have a wonderful time! You are down to the wire.
