# USING MASTERCARD AND CIRRUS IN NEW CALEDONIA Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / New Caledonia
viandante 13:26 UTC 18 Jun 2011 | Hallo, i will be in new caledonia next december and would like to know if it is easy to use my Mastercard and Cirrus/Maestro mainly in noumea. Thanks for any help |
Laszlo 02:33 UTC 19 Jun 2011 | Not sure about Cirrus but I was OK using Master and Visa. It is a very developed place so I'd expect that at least in Noumea any major cards can be used. | 1

For more info on card acceptance you can check few hotels or the card vendor websites to get the info on it so it wont be a incontinence for you. | 2
eloise_marie 07:39 UTC 10 Aug 2011 | You can use both of those card types easily in Noumea, but outside Noumea make sure you carry cash. For example, on Lifou there used to be just one ATM and it wasn't working when I visited in 2006. | 3
