Accepted forms of payment at the Institute:

The Spanish Language Institute in Cuernavaca accepts American Express Traveler’s Checks; Pesos and Dollars. They they do not accept credit cards. ATM cards used at local machines are limited to $300.00 per day. This might vary depending on your bank! You should plan on having a couple of ways to get money. I always take a credit card, a debit card, some traveler’s checks and a small amount of cash. It’s not a bad idea to already have some pesos when you arrive; however, there are “casas de cambio” at the airport and the exchange rate is not bad.

The majority of you will probably take a debit or credit card to Mexico. It’s always a good idea to let your bank know that you will be out of the country. If they see that your card is being used a lot, they might cut it off, thinking that it’s stolen.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them to this website under FAQ’s.
