Common questions about Mexican pesos

Timing the market for the best rates is a tricky business due to daily shifts influenced by economic data, global politics, and trader sentiment. Your personal travel schedule and market-watching comfort will guide your decision. We've got our GBP to CRC exchange rate page to help you stay informed on Costa Rican colon rates.

The Costa Rican colon is accepted in Costa Rica, where it serves as the official currency. It is not widely used outside of Costa Rica, and it is not widely accepted in other countries or regions.

You can purchase your Costa Rican colons from us via credit or debit card. When you purchase Costa Rican colons, either online or at our stores, we ensure no credit card handling fees are applied. However, it's wise to check with your card issuer for any potential charges they might apply.

Yes, you can! We can buy back your unused Costa Rican colon notes at any one of our UK retail stores at the original transaction exchange rate up to a maximum value of £250, for a fee of just £4.99. Learn more about our Buy Back Promise. T&Cs apply.
