Currency

 

Credit and debit cards are accepted pretty much everywhere, however please be advised you may have issues if a zip code is requested. 

 

Mastercard’s recommendation for a postal code: “If prompted for your ZIP code, just enter the three digits of your postal code plus two zeros. So for example, if your postal code is A2B 3C4, the 5-digit number you should enter is 23400. Contact your card issuer if you have any questions.”

 

Entering 00000 is also listed as an appropriate way to enter where there is no postal code at all.
