Botswana’s currency is the pula, written as BWP. The word “pula” means “rain” in Setswana, which shows how precious water is in the region. The pula is one of Africa’s most stable currencies, backed by solid economic policies. The notes show presidents, wildlife, and national symbols. Cash is widely used, though cards work in most hotels and shops. You can easily exchange South African rand in some border areas too. The pula reflects Botswana’s pride, strength, and independence.
