Costa Rica colon rate history
Is now a good time to buy Costa Rica colons? This chart shows the best Costa Rica colon rates recorded each day from 29 November to yesterday so you can see the trend over the past 60 days.
We compare more exchange rates and more travel money suppliers than any other comparison site. It's why millions of UK holidaymakers trust us every year to find the best Costa Rica colon rates.
NEW Travel Insurance for Costa Rica
Compare travel insurance quotes for trips to Costa Rica. We compare a wide range of UK brokers so you can get essential cover in just a few clicks.
Exchange Costa Rica colons into British pounds. Sell your leftover Costa Rica colons by post or find your nearest store and exchange them over the counter.
A smart, flexible and secure alternative to cash. Load funds onto your card and use it whenever you go abroad at a fraction of the cost of normal bank cards.
The best Costa Rica colon exchange rate right now is 782.090 based on our analysis of 13 currency suppliers across the UK.
The worst rate is 688.083 which is 13.66% lower than the best rate. If you were buying £750 worth of Costa Rica colons you'd get ₡70,505.25 more by going with the best offer.
The best Costa Rica colon rates are offered online by companies that specialise in travel money and foreign exchange. Online travel money specialists have lower overheads than most high street shops and traditional bureau de change which means they have greater flexibility in their pricing and can usually offer the best rates on the market.
If you absolutely must buy your Costa Rica colons in person it's still worth seeing if you can order online first on the supplier's website because you'll often get a better rate buy pre-ordering in advance before you collect your order.
On the high street, supermarkets tend to offer better Costa Rica colon rates than travel agents and the worst rates are offered by banks and airports. If you've left it too late for home delivery (ideally three working days before you travel) or if you would prefer to buy your currency in person, use our Costa Rica colon store finder to find the best Costa Rica colon rates near you.
The best time to buy Costa Rica colons is when the pound is performing strongly relative to the Costa Rica colon. That's the technically-correct answer, but it's not very helpful. What people really want to know is: how can I time the market just right to maximise the amount of Costa Rica colons I get before I travel?
You can get a good idea of how competitive today's Costa Rica colon rate is relative to the past using our historical pound to Costa Rica colon charts, but beyond that it's impossible to say exactly when is the best time to buy.
If you have the luxury of time you can spread your Costa Rica colon purchases out over multiple weeks or months, but the short answer is nobody knows when the best Costa Rica colon rate is going to crop up; this isn't something you can control so you shouldn't worry about it - just buy your Costa Rica colons whenever is convenient for you and get back to thinking about your holiday!
There is no evidence to suggest that you are better off buying your Costa Rica colons in Costa Rica. Exchange rates are usually very similar to those on offer here in the UK, but if you wait until you're in Costa Rica you run the risk of being stuck with a poor exchange rate and little or no local competition to buy elsewhere. Also, you may have to pay additional fees or commission when buying Costa Rica colons in Costa Rica, whereas when you buy in the UK you know exactly how much you are getting up front with no hidden surprises when you come to buy.
If you want to send money to a bank account in Costa Rica (or anywhere else in the world), you should use a money transfer service to send the funds for you. This is particularly useful for large or regular payments where the exchange rate is important, but you can use a money transfer service to send or receive funds between any overseas bank accounts (for example to pay for goods in Costa Rica, or receive Costa Rica colons into your UK bank account).
Thousands of customers order travel money on our website every week and the vast majority experience no issues whatsoever. However, as with any online order the process is not entirely risk-free and you should exercise caution when sending money to any company, particularly if you pay by bank transfer.
We undertake strict and comprehensive checks on the companies that we feature, and we monitor them all on a regular basis to ensure they continue to meet our high standards. Having said that, no company is too big to fail and we cannot guarantee the solvency of any of the suppliers who appear on our website. For this reason, we recommend that you conduct your own due diligence before placing an order with any company.
In the unlikely event that something does go wrong after you've placed an order, your payment method will determine how you are financially protected. For more information see: .
Costa Rican coins have proportional diameters and weights based on their denomination. When stacked on top of each other in order of value they make a geometric cone shape.
Choosing the right payment method
It's important that you understand the different ways that you can pay for your travel money because the payment method you choose determines how you are financially protected if something goes wrong with the supplier.
Bank Transfer
There is no financial protection if you pay by bank transfer, so if a supplier goes bust with your money you are unlikely to get it back. We recommend you choose an alternative payment method where one is available such as debit or credit card because they offer more financial protection.
Debit Card
If you pay by debit card your funds are protected in the event of fraud or non-receipt under the card issuer's product and service rules. If a supplier goes bust you can instruct your bank to make a chargeback request against the supplier's bank which means you have a good chance of recovering your money.
Credit Card
If you pay by credit card you have full legal protection under section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. Section 75 states that the card issuer is equally liable with the provider of goods in cases where goods are not received which means your card issuer is legally required to reimburse you for the full amount (from £100 to a maximum of £30,000) if the supplier goes bust. However, it's worth noting that credit cards usually incur additional bank charges and interest (around £40 extra per £1000 spent) so you should balance up the benefits of full legal protection with the added costs of paying by credit card.

FCA Registration and Authorisation
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is the regulatory body for financial service providers in the UK. Part of the FCA's job is to ensure that companies who offer 'regulated activities' are acting in the best interests of consumers by requiring them to register or become authorised. Being registered or authorised by the FCA does not guarantee a company's solvency, but authorised companies are required to segregate all customer funds which means you have a better chance of recovering your money if the company goes bust.
Travel Money is not classified as a regulated activity by the FCA which means companies who solely provide travel money are exempt from registering, although they may choose to do so voluntarily. Companies who provide other foreign exchange services such as international money transfers may have to register with the FCA, and companies with a monthly turnover greater than €3M must be authorised by the FCA regardless of the products or services they provide.
