When do you need cash in Europe?
Although card payments are widely accepted in Europe, it can still be useful to have cash in certain situations.
Flea markets and farmers’ markets are very popular in most European countries, and the majority of payments there are made in cash. If you plan to visit them, make sure you have cash on hand for your purchases.
In some rural areas where network coverage is limited, card terminals can be difficult or even impossible to use. It is therefore important to have cash to avoid being stranded.
Carrying cash is also an excellent way to reduce your travel budget by limiting unnecessary expenses and avoiding bank fees on every withdrawal or transaction. Additionally, it helps you maintain better control over your overall budget. Don’t forget to exchange your SEK for euros before travelling to Europe to benefit from the best exchange rates and our 0% commission.
