Netherlands, Rotterdam was pretty good at least for adults and older children as you can just tap debit/credit cards (or Apple, Google, Samsung, Fidesmo, .etc).
For younger children you can use the RET app to buy a daily ticket but I later realised that if you are just making a couple of journeys, it is easier and can be cheaper to use another payment card and pay as though they are adults.
Like all systems that use payment cards directly you need enough for all members of your party.

Oh, one other thing I did find annoying with the child's daily ticket is it is a QR code, which is fine in and of itself but when you bring your phone close to the QR reader it triggered the NFC Payment wallet on my phone as well. I was not double charged but worried I might be, so I disabled NFC for my phone and paid for my own adult ticket with Garmin pay on my watch.
