Romanian operators price in lei and serve business travellers in Bucharest and Cluj and tourists heading to Transylvania. Romanian companies can open Stripe, Airwallex and Revolut Business accounts locally.

## In short

- 3 gateways work in TransferArc for Romania: Stripe, Airwallex and Revolut Business.
- A company registered in Romania can open a Stripe and an Airwallex account locally.
- PayPal is not available because PayPal does not accept RON.

## How Romania pays

- **Currency**: Romanian leu (RON)
- **Central bank**: Banca Națională a României
- **Market**: EU, outside the euro area
- **Main airports**: Bucharest (OTP), Cluj-Napoca (CLJ)

Bucharest and Cluj-Napoca have growing technology sectors that create corporate transfer demand, while Brașov, Sibiu and the Transylvanian castles draw tourists who book transport in advance.

PayPal does not accept RON, so a company operating in lei connects Stripe, Airwallex or Revolut Business for cards and wallets.
