Payment market

How Mayotte pays

Currency: Euro (EUR)
Status: French overseas department, part of the EU
Central bank: Banque de France (euro area)
Main airport: Dzaoudzi–Pamandzi (DZA)

Mayotte’s airport is on Petite-Terre, so most arrivals cross to Mamoudzou on Grande-Terre by the barge; transfers combine road and ferry for officials, business visitors and divers.

Demand comes mostly from officials, contractors and medical staff rather than mass tourism, so many bookings are billed to organisations. For card payments, Mayotte companies can register with Stripe under France, open an Airwallex account, or use PayPal in EUR.
