What is the currency in Portugal?

Portugal uses the Euro (€) as its official currency, which is divided into 100 cents. Portugal is still very much a cash-centric country, especially outside major cities, though credit and debit cards are widely accepted in tourist areas, hotels, and restaurants. ATMs are readily available throughout the country, and contactless payments are common in urban areas. It's advisable to carry some cash for small purchases, public transport, and when visiting smaller towns or rural areas.
