Accessing your Money

Automatic Teller Cards (ATM)

Automated teller machines (ATMs) are found throughout Australia and an easy way and convenient way of conducting transactions. It is highly adviseable that you consult with you local bank or institution whether you are bale to use your bank card at Australian ATMs. Awithdrawal fee may be charged for using a ATM owned by a foreign bank. 

Credit Cards

The majority of Australians use credit cards as a safe and convenient way to make major financial transactions. Using an internationally recognised credit card is highly recommended since it would be difficult to apply for a credit card while in Australia. Please check with your home bank.

Traveller's Cheques

Traveller's cheques offer you the passport to foreign travel that is safe and convenient. They can be refunded or purchased at any bank. When buying cheques, it is highly recommended that you keep separate cheque records and where possible buy in small denominations. Please note that personal cheques are different from traveller's cheques.
