Getting paid in Montenegro
The basics, with sources
Public facts from official sources, each with its date. Not advice: check with your bank.
Local bank payments
The Central Bank of Montenegro owns and runs the national payment system. Its RTGS system settles single payments, and its DNS system settles payments between banks in batches.
Source: www.cbcg.me, checked 17 Oct 2026.
Money rules
Montenegro's law says current and capital transactions with other countries are free, unless another law says otherwise. People and businesses may hold and use currencies other than the euro.
Source: www.cbcg.me, checked 17 Oct 2026.
Paperwork
For any payment from or to abroad above the amount the Central Bank sets, you must tell your bank what the payment is for. Businesses must also keep separate records of their dealings with other countries and share them if the Central Bank asks.

National payment system
On 20 July 2026, Montenegro's central bank added a third payment system, the IPS system, next to its RTGS and DNS systems. IPS takes only transfers below EUR 3,000, and all 11 banks in Montenegro take part. In September 2026 it handled 10.1% of all payment orders.

Exchange rate, for scale
1 USD = 0.881 EUR (US Treasury reference rate, 30 Sept 2026). The rate on the day of a payment will differ.

Payoneer and Playto, in plain numbers
What adds to the cost with Payoneer
- Payoneer doesn't publish its card fees for this case.
- By bank transfer, Payoneer adds 0.5% of what is left after earlier fees when it changes the money to EUR (standard published price, business in Spain): $49.50 on $10,000.
- All in, Payoneer takes $151.00 or more (1.5%) of a $10,000 bank transfer payment (standard published price, business in Spain). Playto takes $5.00.
- Some Payoneer fees for bank transfer payments are not published, so the real cost can be higher.
When Payoneer is still the right choice
- You want to keep the money in US dollars and not change it. An account that holds foreign money may suit you better.
