- The Philippines’ national currency is the Peso.
- Banks and bureau de changes can be found in the larger cities and at Manila Airport. Check the exchange rate before you travel.
- American dollars are commonly accepted, euros and other currencies less so.
Cash
- Always have some American dollar bills on you, especially when travelling to more remote areas.
- Coins and small denomination notes are scarce so stock up especially when travelling to more remote areas.
Cashpoint / ATM
- ATMs are easy to find in medium sized to larger cities. However, in remote areas they will either be non-existent or out of money so come prepared.
- Most ATMs have a maximum withdrawal limit.
- Charges for taking money out depend on your bank as well as the back operating the ATM.
Credit card
- Credit cards are pretty widely accepted in hotels, restaurants and businesses. They can also be used for cash withdrawals.
- Some businesses, especially those outside of cities and more remote areas, will charge a fee for using your credit card. Check the going rate.
