Why Order Travel Money With TUI?
How to get the most from your Malaysian ringgits on holiday
If you’re planning a trip to Malaysia, you’ll be starting to think about money for your holiday. The official currency is the Malaysian ringgit, which isn’t used by any other country.
The exchange rate for the Malaysian ringgit varies from day to day, but as a rough guide, the average is MYR 4.86 to the pound.

A guide to using your ringgits
Malaysia is a fairly modern country with a good banking system, so you shouldn’t have any trouble using paper money or cards. In the cities, you’ll find ATMs in major bank branches, transport hubs and shopping malls. In more rural areas, you should plan to take cash.
Budget for spending around MYR 200-250 per day: you can work out the details with our useful TUI calculator. Most city restaurant bills include a 10% service charge, and tipping is not expected, though you can leave small change if you wish.
