المال والنقد

العملة: CZK · Czech koruna

Cards and phone payments are accepted almost everywhere in Prague and other cities, including most pubs and taxis. Some chains accept euros but at a poor rate. Withdraw koruna from bank ATMs (avoid Euronet), always choose to be charged in CZK, and never change money on the street.

البقشيش

Tipping is optional but polite, especially in restaurants. Locals round up or add about 5-10% for good service. By law service is included in listed prices, so there is no compulsory service charge unless it is clearly stated on the menu.

عمليات الاحتيال وكيفية التعامل معها
