Can you pay in euros or dollars at Migros supermarket in Antalya, and how do they give change?

In July 2026 travelers said that about two weeks earlier a Migros store had given them change in lira at roughly 43.3 lira per euro. In their view, this works well for small purchases such as ice cream or alcohol, or simply to break a note and have some lira for the dolmuş minibus to Kemer or Antalya city. They did not suggest using it to exchange a large amount.

Another participant wrote in July 2026 that cash euros were accepted everywhere they paid — for small purchases. Sometimes they had to wait for change, but the banknotes themselves were never questioned.

It does not always go smoothly: in July 2026 one shopper's payment at Migros did not go through, and they worried about making a wasted trip to a shopping mall as well. A participant who had no problems suggested the cashier may have suspected fraud. So it is worth carrying a little lira in case a payment is refused.
