What to know about Payments in Croatia

Croatia switched to the euro in January 2023 and card acceptance is excellent: contactless, Apple Pay and Google Pay work in supermarkets, tolls, ferries and most restaurants. Cash still matters at green markets, some island konobas and for small tips. Croatia also has a lively local fintech scene, with Aircash and KEKS Pay handling parking and person-to-person payments. For most visitors a contactless card covers nearly everything, with a parking app as the one genuinely useful extra.

Best Payments apps in Croatia (2026)

Revolut app icon

RevolutEssential

Croatia adopted the euro in 2023 and contactless payment is near universal, so Revolut covers supermarkets, ferries and konobas at great rates for visitors from outside the eurozone.

Pro tip: Skip airport currency desks entirely and pay by card or phone. Keep some coins and small notes for green markets, island beach bars and tips, and always choose euros if a terminal offers your home currency.

Aircash app icon

Aircash

Croatia's homegrown wallet, licensed across the EU. Its killer feature for visitors is paying street parking in more than 90 Croatian cities directly from the app, without local SMS fees.

Pro tip: You can top up with a foreign Visa or Mastercard, or with cash at Tisak kiosks and INA petrol stations. Registration is aimed at EU/EEA residents, so travelers from elsewhere should rely on their own contactless card instead.

App StorePlay Store
KEKS Pay app icon

KEKS Pay

Erste Bank's free app that Croatians use to split bills and send money instantly, open to users of any bank. Also handles parking, motorway toll top-ups and mobile credit.

Pro tip: You do not need an Erste account, but the app is built for Croatian daily life. As a visitor you only really need it if Croatian friends want to send you money or split costs by KEKS.
