Not all ATMs accept foreign cards (Scotia Bank is typically a good bet) and credit cards are rarely accepted outside the business district in Georgetown.

Tipping is expected in Guyana; 10 to 15% is the norm.

Money comes in banknotes: $20, $100, $500, $1000, $5000 and coins: $1, $5, $10

Cambios have licensed currency exchange houses. Most Cambios are open from 8 am to 5 pm and on Saturdays from 8 am to 2 pm. It is important that you keep your Cambio receipt, you will need to produce them to change Guyanese dollars on departure.
