Currency, Banks & Money Exchange

The Mexican Peso is the national currency, although USA dollars are widely accepted in businesses throughout town. Major credit cards are also accepted in most establishments (Visa, Mastercard, American Express are standard, some also receive Diners). Banks offer currency exchange during business hours, which are generally Monday through Friday from 9am to 5pm, with a few offering at least morning service on Saturdays. You can also use “Casas de Cambio”. Universal ATMs are broadly available for cash withdrawals from global cash cards; hotels also offer currency exchange services, but normally at a lower rate.
