TL;DR

For everyday spending in Nha Trang, cash and local QR payments are the most practical options. QR is widely used, but some shops explicitly do not accept foreign-bank QR payments.

What the community said

USDT can be used as a digital payment method. According to a traveler report, merchants or intermediaries who accept it may guide customers through the payment process, so detailed wallet and network knowledge may not be necessary.

QR payments are widespread in Nha Trang, including among small street vendors such as beach fruit sellers. These are generally local QR systems rather than a universal replacement for a bank card.

Carry cash as a backup, since it is one of the main payment methods alongside QR. Some shops display notices that foreign-bank QR payments are not accepted, so do not rely solely on an overseas QR option.
