PolandPLNPolish Zloty
Tens of thousands of Russian speakers now live in Poland — in Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw. Direct SWIFT transfers from Russia to Polish banks don't work, and Mir cards are not accepted. ATM24 credits PLN to IBAN at PKO BP, mBank, or ING through alternative routes and provides cash zlotys in major Polish cities. The exchange rate in zlotys and the route are agreed upon before payment.
The route, the receiving bank and the payout amount are agreed before payment.
Poland is a significant destination for money transfers: the country is home to one of Europe's largest Ukrainian diaspora communities, as well as Russian-speaking recipients connected to Russia through family and business relationships. PLN (Polish zloty) is Poland's national currency; the country is an EU member but not part of the eurozone. Poland adheres to the EU sanctions regime, so transfers from Russia may undergo additional AML/KYC checks and require supporting documents. BLIK is a fast payment system developed by Polish banks: a 6-digit one-time code from a banking app allows you to pay for purchases in stores and online, as well as withdraw cash from ATMs without a bank card. More than 15 million people use BLIK.
For international transfers from Russia, BLIK is not used directly — a Polish bank IBAN and BIC/SWIFT code are required for bank deposits. Transfers from Russia to Poland are made through available SWIFT routes with subsequent crediting in PLN or another currency of the recipient's account; the transfer time is several business days and depends on the chosen route and bank. A Polish bank IBAN starts with PL and contains 28 characters. Polish zloty cash through ATM24 is available in major Polish cities through our partner network; the specific pickup location is confirmed when placing your request.
