How to Prepare WST for Your Samoa Trip

A short practical guide for a first visit.

Samoa is an island state in the Pacific Ocean where ATMs are mainly available in Apia. Outside the capital, a cash reserve is essential. ATM24 helps buy WST before departure.

Mir Card in Samoa: Not the Main Option

Mir card in Samoa is not a suitable primary way to pay or withdraw WST. ATMs are not everywhere, and island routes are best planned with a cash reserve. For Apia and island travel, prepare funds for transfer, accommodation, food, and small services in advance. Before withdrawing with a foreign card, check the fee and available limit.

Cash at Our Russia Offices or Bank Transfer

ATM24 offers two options: get WST cash at a Russia office before departure, or transfer to the recipient's account in Samoa (check availability when submitting the request). Available routes: USDT TRC20 to WST cash; USDT TRC20 to WST bank transfer; RUB bank transfer to WST cash; RUB SBP/QR to WST cash.

Commission for Small Exchange Amounts

Commission from 0.9%. Check the exact amount in the calculator.

Excellent bank for contactless currency exchange! Manager Lev is very involved in the work, answered all questions and made the process as calm as possible in terms of security The only, in my observation, nuance is dealing with ATMs We recommend immediately providing a list of ATMs where you can cash out currency (so you can look at the list, approach the ATM and clarify with the manager the possibility of working with it) But that's more a question for updating Google Maps, since not all ATMs that are located around the city are shown on the maps

Respect for the ATM 24 team. I received my withdrawal right before the New Year. It was through an ATM in Koh Samui. Incidentally, it was my first time withdrawing from an ATM. They explained everything to me. Special thanks to manager Ekaterina for her responsiveness and patience. I'm happy with the result. I recommend them. I'll be doing business with them again!

Frequently Asked Questions about Currency Exchange in Samoa

Is it better to exchange currency before a trip to Samoa?

Yes. Outside Apia, ATMs and exchange offices are rare. In Asau, Faleolo, Salelologa, and Mulifanua, a WST cash reserve is essential. Exchange via ATM24 in advance.

Where can I buy Samoan currency?

WST can be bought via ATM24 before departure - as cash or via bank transfer. In the country itself, exchange offices are available in Apia, but outside the capital the choice is limited.

What is the WST rate today?

The rate is fixed at the time of the request. For a reference, check the 100 USDT -> WST calculation: 260.84 WST.

Does Mir card work in Samoa?

Mir card in Samoa is not a reliable instrument. ATMs are mainly available in Apia, and Russian cards have limited access to international networks. It is better to prepare WST via ATM24 in advance.

Can you pay in dollars or euros in Samoa?

The official currency is WST. US dollars are sometimes accepted at tourist establishments in Apia, but euros are practically not used. We recommend having WST cash.
