• The Falkland Islands has one cash point located at the Stanley Services refuelling station on Bypass Road, it is only available during usual business hours

  • We also only have one bank, Standard Chartered Bank, which is located on Ross Road opposite the police station, which is open on weekdays from 9am-3pm

  • At the bank you can change money, transfer funds and issue cash advances against Visa and Mastercard – charges apply and photographic identification is essential

  • Some local shops can provide you with cashback if you pay by card – the fee for this service is £3 in The West Store and Chandlery, but currently free in Kelper stores

  • Local currency has the same value as UK sterling and both are used freely and interchangeably in the Islands

  • US dollars and Euros can be used in some places, however Argentine pesos cannot; similarly, some credit and debit cards can be used at certain locations – it’s a good idea to check with the server at the till before you pay and carry cash where possible
