History reference:
The currency of Jordan is the Jordanian dinar. The currency is interesting, just like the country itself, because everything that happens in the country naturally affects the money. The word "dinar" ...from Latin is translated "by ten", "consisting of ten." Its origin is associated with the word "denaria". It was referred to as a large coin in the Roman Empire. Money with the name "dinar" is also found on the pages of the Koran. A currency with this name circulated at one time in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the FLA, in Yugoslavia, in Serbia, in Sudan, and South Yemen. Around 5th century BC Greek silver coins were seen in the country. Before the fall of Rome, Jordan was "captured" by local denarii and tetradrachms of Syria. Jordan is a safe country, so you can safely use bank cards to pay for services. In large cities, cashless payments are ubiquitous, but in villages and regions far from Amman, only cash is accepted. It can be difficult to find an ATM, so we recommend that you always have dinars or dollars with you.
