The currency used in Indonesia is the Rupiah and to get the best exchange rates, it is best to stick to US dollars or sterling traveller's cheques rather than cash and stick to banks and credit cards are widely accepted in major destinations such as Jakarta and Bali, there are also many ATMs in the territory and if need be, you can usually get a cash advance in a bank - at a small charge.
Tipping is not common practice, but there are always little charges to pay, people who help you park, people who carry your bag, cab drivers, and waiters will all expect a few thousand Rupiah for their service - for meals, you may well pay around 10% of the bill in upmarket restaurants - a few pence everywhere else, unless a service charge has already been added to the bill, and gentle bargaining over prices is the norm in almost all markets, shops and hotels.
