If you are curious about whether you can use your credit card in the Cayman Islands, the answer is – absolutely yes! Visa and MasterCard are widely accepted by hotels, restaurants, and many shops, including Jacques Scott Wine & Spirits liquor stores!
Tips for Traveling with Credit Cards
When traveling to the Cayman Islands and other international destinations, the most widely accepted credit cards are Visa and MasterCard. American Express and Discover are less widely accepted.
Contact the company that issued your credit card before your trip to find out about any fees they may charge you for using your card overseas. It’s not unusual for credit card companies to charge a fee for each foreign transaction on your card, and it’s nice to know what to expect.
It is also wise to let your credit card company where and when you will be traveling. Although some card issuers say this is no longer necessary, charges on your card from an unusual location like the Cayman Islands may cause them to decline the charges due to suspected fraud.
Keep a copy of your credit card with you in a secure but separate place. If your card is lost or stolen, having your card information and the phone numbers of your card issuers will come in handy. The 800-number you currently have will probably not work outside the US. Contact the card issuer and get an 800-number that will work in the Cayman Islands.
