Extra Travel Tips

French Polynesia is made up of over 100 islands across five archipelagos—including the Society Islands, Tuamotus, Marquesas, Gambier, and Austral Islands. While major resorts and urban centers accept cards, many local shops, beachside cafés, and inter-island services prefer cash—especially in remote areas.

  • Mix Cash & Card
    French Polynesia is card-friendly in cities like Papeete and tourist hubs like Bora Bora, but shops, local markets, and temples often prefer cash—especially coins for small purchases like fruit, souvenirs, or ferry tickets.
  • Use CFP Francs, Not AUD
    Always pay in local currency (XPF) to avoid poor exchange rates and hidden conversion fees. AUD may be refused or converted unfavorably, especially outside major resorts.
  • Watch ATM Fees
    Some foreign cards incur withdrawal charges or poor exchange rates. For better transparency, use post office ATMs or bank-affiliated machines—avoid standalone ATMs when possible. While 7-Eleven ATMs are common in Japan, they’re not available in French Polynesia.
  • Leftover Francs After Your Trip?
    Danesh Exchange offers a buy-back service for unused CFP Francs—simple, secure, and great value. Skip the airport hassle and reclaim your leftover travel funds with ease.
