Indeed interchangeable. I believe that if you get a card from a bank in Europe it will say Eurocard, but if you get it in the US it will say MasterCard. No difference. I was once shocked when a restaurant told me they wouldn't accept MasterCard but would accept Visa, when I said, "but I thought it is the same as Eurocard," they responded that yes it is, but they didn't take Eurocard either.

I have a card issued by Master Card in the US. It does not say Eurocard on it. I have had it refused in places in Europe that take "Eurocard/Mastercard". One of my employees in Germany tells me they are different. If this is important to you - I'd try to get clarification. I have never been able to use them interchangeable.
