Looking for reliable ATMs in Guadeloupe that work well with foreign debit/credit cards and dont charge crazy fees. Any recos will be highly appreciated.
If you’re headed to Marie-Galante or the main island, BNP Paribas and Banque Postale are everywhere-no local ATM fee, up to your own card’s cap. I recommend withdrawing the max from city ATMs before heading out to smaller towns, where machines can sometimes go offline in high season.
All major BNP and Banque Postale ATMs in Guadeloupe have English/French menus, and none of them have any extra fees-perfect for tourists. I had no issues pulling €500+ for car rental and accommodation on day one, and limits are only set by your home card.
My experience in Sainte-Anne and Le Gosier-BNP Paribas ATMs ere fee-free for foreign cards. I usually stocked up before ferry trips to La Désirade. Banque Postale was just as reliable on my Mastercard. Always double-check your own bank’s overseas fees, but as of now, local machines aren’t taking a cut themselves at these banks.
BNP Paribas and Banque Postale are the top picks for ATMs in Guadeloupe-zero withdrawal fee for foreign cards, and you can take out up to your own card’s daily limit. I used my Revolut and Visa debit at BNP in Pointe-à-Pitre and never got hit by extra charges. Highly recommend hitting these just after landing.
