Cash & ATM

ATM
To pull Indonesian Rupiah you can use ATM machines. The closest 24-hour Automatic Teller Machine is The Maybank ATM just 5 minutes from ZIN Canggu (turn left when you exit the cafe). Unless you have a Maybank account some charges may apply for your transaction (usually 3-5USD, however the exchange rate also usually better than changing cash).

ATM machines are marked either Rp 50,000 or Rp. 100,000, which indicates the largest bill denomination the machine will issue. If you wish to withdraw large amounts of cash per transaction, it is better to use the machines with the larger bills, which allow you to withdraw between Rp 2,500,000 and Rp 3,000,000 each transaction instead of Rp 1,250,000 or Rp 1,500,000.

As is the case in most countries, ATM machine scams do happen so please be vigilant in protecting your PIN number and don’t forget your card before you leave.
Currency Exchange
There are several professional money changers at Batu Bolong Street (towards the north end). You recognize them easily, because these are proper offices, with AC and digital exchange rate boards. They don’t charge commission and are reliable. We suggest NOT to change your money at the little shacks that line the streets of Bali. These guys can have some shady tricks up their sleeves.
