About the
SOUTH AFRICAN RAND

The South African Rand (symbol: R; currency code: ZAR) is the official currency of South Africa, issued and regulated by the South African Reserve Bank. It is subdivided into 100 cents. Coins in circulation include 10c, 20c, 50c, R1, R2, and R5; banknotes are issued in denominations of R10, R20, R50, R100, and R200. Introduced in 1961 to replace the South African pound, the rand was named after the Witwatersrand, the ridge upon which Johannesburg is built and where most of South Africa's gold deposits were found. Today, travelers often monitor the AUD→ZAR rate when planning visits to places like Cape Town, Kruger National Park, or the Garden Route—and balance cash and digital payments for local experiences.
