How it works
Private "Euronet" and "Cardpoint" ATMs in tourist areas offer dynamic currency conversion at rates 5–10% worse than bank rates, often without clearly disclosing the markup.
How it works
Informal money changers operating near the Pazar (Green Market) and around the Riva waterfront offer attractive exchange rates for euros or dollars but use sleight of hand during the transaction to deliver fewer kuna — or now euros — than agreed. A common trick is to peel off notes during counting, relying on tourists unfamiliar with Croatian currency to not recount immediately.
