Smart Money Choices in
Barbados Starts Here

We focus on the most popular financial institutions in Barbados. This includes major commercial banks like Scotiabank, CIBC Caribbean, RBC Royal Bank, and digital banks like Sagicor Bank, plus leading credit unions including COB, Public Workers, and AffinityPlus. While Barbados has 25 registered credit unions (as of September 30, 2025), we feature the ones most Bajans use for their everyday banking needs.

Consider factors like annual fees, interest rates, rewards programs, and your spending habits. Compare cards from different financial institutions to find the best combination of benefits and costs for your financial situation. Look for cards with low fees and competitive interest rates.

Financial service fees vary by institution and account type. Common fees include monthly service fees (typically $5-15 BBD), teller transaction fees ($2-5 BBD), and minimum balance requirements. Some accounts waive fees if you maintain a minimum balance or meet certain transaction requirements.

We regularly monitor and update financial service rates, fees, and product information. Our data is verified monthly to ensure accuracy. Products with green "Updated" badges have been verified within the last 30 days, while all data is refreshed quarterly to maintain current information.
