Credit cards

Whenever I travel, I would usually use my credit cards and ATM. I am not quite aware with the banking system in Aruba. Does the island accepts credit cards? Just in case they won't then, I would bring more than enough money.

Of course, they would accept credit cards. I think most of the foreigners use it. Aruba has banks too so we don't have to worry with our ATM. I wonder, do they accept checks as well?

of course they will accept credit cards..although its an island but using the latest trend of technology and that includes credit cards and the likes..

Although the island is not huge, I think we could still find some banks and ATM machines. It would be fine not to bring too much cash on hand because they would absolutely accept credit cards. My question is that, do they accept all kinds of credit cards?

Don't worry. They do.

What if we run out of cash, are tourists allowed to borrow money from the banks? That would be pretty hard. What could be the necessary documents to be brought in case of emergency?
