Why Buy Israeli Shekels (ILS) Before You Travel

Buying your Israeli Shekels in advance is always the smarter choice. Airport bureaux de change and hotel exchange desks regularly offer rates significantly worse than specialist providers, while using your UK card at Israeli ATMs means facing foreign transaction fees and poor conversion rates set by your bank. Having ILS ready from the moment you land means you can pay for transport, food and entrance fees straight away without any hassle. While Israel is largely card friendly in major cities, cash remains important for local markets, smaller businesses, religious sites and tipping throughout your stay, making Shekels an essential part of your travel preparation.

Cash remains useful for:

  • Tipping in restaurants and hotels
  • Taxes and ride services
  • Small purchases
  • Emergencies

About the Israeli Shekel (ILS)

The Israeli New Shekel (currency code: ILS, symbol: ₪) is the official currency of Israel and is also widely accepted in the Palestinian territories. The Shekel is a floating currency, meaning its value is determined by global market forces and moves in response to economic data, geopolitical developments and broader market sentiment. Banknotes are issued in denominations of 20, 50, 100 and 200 ILS, with coins available in 10 agorot, 50 agorot, 1, 2, 5 and 10 ILS. For most everyday spending, 50 and 100 ILS notes are the most practical and widely used throughout the country.

Is Cash Used In Hong Kong?
