Just like any other ATM. If the ATM first offers a choice of different currencies, then choose the one you need. If it does not offer, by default it is loaded with its national currency (in Turkey, lira). Write the amount in the currency you want to withdraw.

It is better and safer to withdraw money from an ATM located in the bank building. There you can also ask for help from any bank employee. They will definitely help, and it's safer than asking a random passerby. Good luck.

There are cards that, in principle, cannot be used abroad.
Many issuing banks require the opening of the possibility of using the cards they serve in other countries.

And do not forget about the losses at the conversion rates and the cost of services of the issuing bank and the acquiring bank.

You should not withdraw money on Friday evening, after 16.30. If the ATM swallows the card, it will be available only on Monday morning. Carry out the operation quickly and take the card as soon as the operation is completed. The ATM can swallow the card, "thinking" that the client has forgotten it, so that it does not get to another.

It is better to take dollars with you on a trip (preferably in small ones - changing money often becomes a problem), but you can take a little euro for settlements at the hotel reception. Do not change the currency for local money (Turkish Lira) at the airport, at the hotel reception, in small shops - the exchange rate is very unfavorable. It is better to do this in the official exchanger, under the sign CHANGE OFFICE. Practically, any store accepts currency without restrictions, so it makes sense to change a small amount to pay for small purchases and travel from the hotel to the city, etc. In large centers, you can pay in rubles, but the exchange rate differs from the central bank by 2-3 rubles. Major credit cards accepted: Visa, Master, American Express, etc. The Turkish Lira exchange rate can be found on the website: www.doviz.com
If you are going shopping, you should not take large sums of money with you - any large purchase can be paid at the hotel, and you should not carry your passport with you (it is replaced by a plastic bracelet on your hand,
