Cash vs Carte

Sweden is one of the most cashless countries in the world. Card is accepted absolutely everywhere, even for 20 SEK. Locals mostly pay via Swish (a mobile app linked to their bank account). Many businesses simply refuse cash.

Distributeurs (ATM)

'Bankomat' ATMs present but declining. Rarely useful for a traveller.

Frais typiques

Free withdrawals with a Swedish card; possible fees for foreign non-eurozone cards.

Ou changer son argent

No need to change cash. Contactless card payment is enough. Avoid the commission-charging Forex bureaus.

Pourboires

No tip expected, service included.

Round up or 5-10% for excellent service at restaurants

!Unregulated taxis (free fares): check the price displayed on the window before getting in
!Rare pickpockets in Stockholm's tourist areas in summer

Paiements digitaux

Apple Pay and Google Pay accepted everywhere. Swish dominates person-to-person payments (used by ~2/3 of Swedes) but requires a Swedish bank account — inaccessible to tourists, who pay by card.
