Quick Tips
Avoid currency exchange kiosks at airports
Although exchanging currency at an airport kiosk is quick and easy, it is also one of the most expensive ways to get your hands on some foreign currency. Airport kiosks typically offer high exchange rates due to low competition and the fact that they know travellers are in a hurry and might not have time to shop around for a better deal.
Use an exchange that does not charge commission or fees
Refusing to pay commissions and fees is a great way to save money when exchanging currency. You should always inquire about these extra fees before committing to a transaction to avoid being surprised by any unexpected charges.
Get your foreign currency from a reputable source
When it comes to your hard-earned cash, you should only entrust it to the most reputable and reliable money changers. Crown Currency Exchange is a name you can trust, with nearly 20 years of experience in the industry.
Chinese Yuan FAQ’s
What currency does China use?
China uses the Chinese Yuan, also called the Renminbi (¥, CNY or RMB). First issued in 1948, it's the official currency of mainland China and one of the most widely traded currencies in the world.
When is the best time to buy Chinese Yuan with Australian Dollars?
The exchange rate for AUD to CNY may vary based on trade relations, economic trends, and seasonal demand. It's advisable to keep an eye on the market or consult with Crown Currency Exchange, especially if planning to travel during peak tourist seasons like Chinese New Year.
How do I buy Chinese Yuan (CNY) with AUD?
Head into your nearest Crown Currency Exchange store and we'll exchange your Australian dollars for Chinese Yuan (CNY) on the spot, paying by cash or card. We always have cash on hand.
You can submit a quote online, give your local store a call, or simply walk in, whichever's easiest for you. Use the store locator to find your nearest branch.
Is the Chinese Yuan used in Hong Kong and Macau?
No. The Chinese Yuan is the currency of mainland China only. Hong Kong uses the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) and Macau uses the Macanese Pataca (MOP), so if your trip includes either, you'll need a second currency.
Do I need cash in China?
Yes, it's worth carrying some. Mobile payment apps are used for most purchases in Chinese cities, but cash is still legal tender and accepted, and it's a reliable backup if an app or foreign card doesn't work. It's especially handy at smaller vendors, markets and in regional areas.
How do I get the best currency rate?
To secure the best exchange rate, consider these tips:
Monitor Rates Regularly: Exchange rates fluctuate frequently, so keeping an eye on the rates can help you buy at the right moment. Our experts are always ready to help you with the latest rates.
Avoid Airport Exchanges: Airport currency exchanges often have higher fees and less favourable rates due to convenience fees.
Order in Advance: Your local team at Crown Currency Exchange will help you lock in great value rates well ahead of time. Just give them a call or head into store today.
Where can I buy Chinese Yuan (CNY) in Australia?
