Why Exchange in Person

Cash in your hand today

No three-day wait. No card in the post. Walk in, exchange, and leave with your notes in the denominations you asked for.

Expert advice, no guesswork

Our team works with foreign cash every day. Ask about a currency, a rate, or where it's worth carrying small notes, and you'll get a straight answer before you travel.

Protection from online scams

Fake exchange sites can look just like the real thing, and they ask for your bank details. Exchanging in person takes that risk off the table.

Genuine notes, every time

You walk out with real banknotes, checked and in good condition, ready to spend the moment you land.

Better value than the airport

Airport exchange counters advertise a rate, then take a margin and a fee once you're through. Crown adds neither.

Canberra Travel Money Tips

Sort it before you fly out

Trips from Canberra usually connect through Sydney or Melbourne, where airport kiosks charge the most. Get your cash at Belconnen or Woden before you go.

Buy before you fly, sell when you're back

Exchange in the city and you keep more than you would at the gate. Bring the leftovers to any store when you land.

Empty the coin jar for charity

We don't exchange coins. We do collect them for overseas charities. Tip the travel jar into ours on the way past.
