deep-pocketed

This comes from the online dictionary www.ordbogen.com.

I think it covers both senses...

I would understand 'købestærk' as having the ability to buy = having lots of money, but not necessarily buying a lot.
Note from asker:
I might use this, thanks, but which meaning does it have for you as a Dane? Is it having the money to buy stuff or actually buying stuff?
Thanks!

Having spending power or being affluent

This word is actually listed in my Norwegian dictionary (Kunnskapsforlaget). Also the 'moneyed' may be used.
