Buying your Philippine Peso in advance is always the smarter choice. Airport bureaux de change and hotel exchange desks consistently offer rates far worse than specialist providers, while withdrawing cash from Philippine ATMs with a UK card means paying foreign transaction fees, withdrawal charges and poor conversion rates that quickly add up. Having PHP ready from the moment you land means you can pay for transport, food and activities straight away without any stress. Cash is essential throughout the Philippines, particularly for island transport, local markets, street food, smaller restaurants, beach vendors and tipping, making Philippine Peso an absolute necessity for any trip to the islands.

The Philippine Peso (currency code: PHP, symbol: ₱) is the official currency of the Philippines, issued and managed by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. The Peso is a floating currency, meaning its value is determined by global market forces and moves in response to economic data, remittance flows, trade figures and broader market sentiment. The Philippines receives significant remittances from overseas workers, which plays an important role in supporting the strength of the PHP. Banknotes are issued in denominations of 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 PHP, with coins available in 1, 5 and 25 centavos as well as 1, 5 and 10 PHP. For most everyday spending, 100 and 500 PHP notes are the most practical and widely used throughout the country.
