How to send money to Poland? Step by step guide

#
Due to Poland’s local currency, zloty, many people and businesses trading with this country try to find the best ways to transfer money without losing neither funds nor time. Many people send money to Poland via Paysera which, thanks to local partners, can provide not only good currency exchange rates from euro to zloty but also fast and effortless payments. In this text, we will take a deeper look at how to make such transfers.

When would I need to send money to Poland? 

💼 Business trade deals. Poland is a strong manufacturing partner for its neighbour countries like Lithuania, Ukraine, Germany, or Czechia. Therefore, many businesses from these countries send money to Poland on a daily basis and constantly convert currencies from their local ones, like euros, to Polish zloty. 

👨‍👩‍👦 Money for family. Another common case when people send money to Poland periodically is if they work in a foreign country and send their salary back to their families in Poland. Or vice versa, people who work in Poland, which is a pretty big market, send money back to their relatives abroad. 

🛒 Shopping. It is also popular to shop abroad, especially when it comes to bigger purchases like furniture or construction materials, which might be cheaper in neighbouring countries. For transfers like that, you also might find yourself wondering how to make a transfer in zloty.
