Hopefully, I am not duplicating somebody else’s post on this.

As of Late August, a new ATM is now available in Maho.

It is a WIB Bank ATM. It is located beside the Platinum Room and the Mullet Bay clinic.

There continues to be a First Caribbean bank ATM in Casino Royale, but it is not available till after 1 PM and Does not have money much up the time.

The other ATM options for the area are In the terminal at the airport. There are two ATMs just before going up to departures.

Yes true. But we have missed the RBC ATM, which used to be at street level here at La Terrasse. It disappeared during Covid times. Nice to have at least one more in Maho.

Question for other Canadians: Does your ATM card work at WIB? I have found that mine always get rejected there. It seems to work fine at RBC and at Republic.
Just curious if it is all Canadian cards, or just mine.

I have used the WIB in Philipsburg with no problem in the past. IT IS AN RBC card.

WIB ATMs are fine with Canadian debit cards. There are two ATMs at the terminal building on the ground floor. I have used my TD Canada Trust card in both of them. One is an RBC and the other is a WIB .

I can’t tell you what the fee is for the ATM here in Maho because I did not use my Canadian card today. I have an Island account here and when I use that card there is no transaction fee.

This is my view here tonight in Maho at 9 PM

I guess my only concern is that it’s a bit away from everything there. Not sure I’d be comfortable using it at night. There is a dark alleyway that goes along side the club.

I believe there is truth in that Lesley. I have heard that as well.
what’s good about that is the ATM is available all day. So it’s a good option for those who don’t want to head down to the airport or Cupecoy.

It could be that I am using a Credit Union card. As mentioned it seems to work fine at Republic and RBC. I will try again in December at WIB, especially since the new WIB ATMs are close to where we are staying.

I use RBC and CIBC. There is still the main RBC Caribbean branch in Philipsburg with an ATM.

I did miss the RBC branch in Simpson Bay, plus the RBC ATM at Carrefour. They were both very handy. But this year I noticed there is now an RBC ATM in Simpson Bay village on Airport Road. It's on the right-hand side as you come from the airport in the St. Maarten Diagnostic Centre front parking lot.
