Nearly cashless like rest of Netherlands. Many places refuse cash. Cards and contactless essential. Public transport machines card-only.
ING or ABN AMRO ATMs best. GWK Travelex at Rotterdam Centraal station expensive - avoid. Almost no physical exchange offices exist - city is cashless. Use cards everywhere. If you need cash, Pott Change on Coolsingel has okay rates but unnecessary.
Service included. 5-10% appreciated but not expected. Round up in cafes.
