| | | | Money | The Hungarian currency is the Forint (Ft). Coins in circulation are 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 forints. Banknotes come in denomination of 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000 and 20000 Ft. Paying by credit card is not the routine experience it is in much of the West. Cards are accepted by most tourist-related businesses such as hotels, restaurants, stores in the shopping districts, and petrol stations, supermarkets and train or bus stations. Travellers cheques can be cashed in banks but are not accepted in shops. Cash machines (ATMs) are relatively widespread and have recently been integrated so that you can use several networks on a single machine.
