Be advised that your Debit Card has a default daily limit for your own protection.  The daily local limits are set at ANG 1,000.00 for withdrawals at any ATM and ANG 2,500.00 for transactions at any Point of Sale terminals (POS). Your card will inherit these local limits when activated for interisland use.

The daily foreign limit (Outside of the Dutch Caribbean: Aruba, BES islands, Curaçao and Sint Maarten) will be set at ANG 1,000.00 combined for both ATM and payment terminals unless specified differently by the customer. 

The interisland activation is applicable for an ATM and/or payment terminal belonging to Banco di Caribe. To be able to use your card at a non-Banco di Caribe ATM and/or payment terminal please activate your card for international use as well.

International activation allows you to use your Debit Card worldwide at any ATM and/or payment terminal accepting Mastercard or Maestro.

However, there are locations that only accept either Mastercard Debit or Maestro.Our Mastercard Debit Card also has the Maestro logo printed on the back, which indicates that you can pay with the card at any establishment that accepts Mastercard or Maestro.
