Currency & Money in Jordan

Using the Jordanian dinar: banknotes, ATMs, cards, what is widely accepted, and cash tips.

Jordan's currency is the Jordanian dinar (JOD/JD), divided into 100 piastres. ATMs are common in cities and tourist sites; contactless cards work in most shops and restaurants, though smaller stalls prefer cash.

Carry a mix of cash and cards, and keep small notes for tips. Currency exchange desks exist at the airport and hotels. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan find cash handy for their daily fee, and full package tours to Jordan explain costs clearly in advance.
