Pitcairn Islands is one of 227 countries and regions where Dodo Payments enables merchants to accept payments from customers worldwide. With support for Credit Cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, businesses can reach buyers in Pitcairn Islands without additional payment infrastructure.

## Supported Payment Methods

For Pitcairn Islands, method ordering should reflect local buyer habits rather than a generic global checkout. Start with high-trust methods above the fold, then expand based on completion-rate evidence by device and ticket size.

- **Credit Cards**: Widely accepted for both one-time and recurring payments, typically handling **35-80%** of online transaction value depending on category.
- **Debit Cards**: International-enabled debit cards with 3D Secure are supported for one-time payments and subscriptions.
- **Apple Pay**: High-converting on iOS with biometric confirmation; often lifts mobile completion by reducing form entry.
- **Google Pay**: Strong Android checkout option that shortens payment time and improves mobile conversion quality.
- **Stablecoins**: Pay from a crypto wallet in USDC, USDP, or USDG while you settle in USD, avoiding volatility.

## Currency: New Zealand Dollar (NZD)

The local currency in Pitcairn Islands is the New Zealand Dollar (NZD). When **Adaptive Currency** is enabled, Dodo Payments automatically converts and displays prices in NZD at checkout.

- **Conversion**: Prices convert from your base currency to NZD using live exchange rates
- **Customer fees**: 2-4% conversion fee (based on order value), borne by the customer
- **Settlement**: You receive funds in your configured base currency -- no multi-currency accounting needed

Displaying prices in NZD improves trust and reduces cart abandonment for customers in Pitcairn Islands who may hesitate when seeing prices in an unfamiliar currency.

- **Collection** -- Tax collected from the customer at checkout
- **Invoicing** -- Compliant invoices generated for every transaction
- **Remittance** -- Tax filed and paid to the relevant authorities on your behalf

This removes the need to register for local tax, track changing rates, or manage filing deadlines in Pitcairn Islands.
