If Republic credits are no good, what is used for or what is money called on Tatooine? Water would be an obvious currency but some form of 'cash' is seen being used.

Peggats, truguts, and wupiupi.
From the Star Wars Wikia, cited to Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know:
A peggat was a form of currency used by the Hutts on Tatooine. A peggat was the equivalent of four truguts or 64 golden wupiupi, while it normally exchanged for roughly 40 credits.
Peggats and truguts used to be mentioned in the (canon) Star Wars Databank, but it seems they aren't any more. Wupiupi are mentioned in the Phantom Menace Visual Dictionary.

@Seamusthedog Ahh, I see. Well, it looks like the original question is already satisfactorily answered, so I don't need to repost there. Also, there's no need to delete your question just because it's a dupe :-)– Rand al'Thor ♦Commented Aug 27, 2018 at 13:14
