Cash or Card? Countries where you still need cash.

For a Doha layover you don't need any cash. Use your card to buy a metro ticket, go to Souk Waqif and if you do any shopping most (not all) shops take cards. If one shop doesn't and they are desperate for business they may have you swipe your card at a friend's shop who will reimburse them. Have lunch at the beautiful Parisa Persian Restaurant.
 
Not a fan of smartraveller?

"A compulsory Airport Security Fee must be paid upon entering and exiting The Gambia. The fee is US$20, or equivalent in euros, pound sterling or local currency. You can pay the fee via marked kiosks in Banjul International Airport. Children below 2 years of age and transit passengers are exempt."

Fair enough - I did check Smartraveller but somehow missed this!
