Harare - Post Report Question and Answers
Are credit cards widely accepted and safe to use locally? Are ATMs common and do you recommend using them? Are they safe to use?
Hahaha. Ha. No credit cards. No cash bills that are older than 2016. You would have to be a complete fool to use an ATM here. - Jan 2024
Some grocery stores accepted international credit cards. At one point, the Embassy had the only working ATM in the city. Definitely a cash-based economy, in my opinion, the economy is one for the history books. Right now, USD is accepted at most places. - May 2021
