Ukrgasbank exchange rate: exchanging online and in the app

Ukrgasbank lets you exchange currency online — in the mobile app, without visiting a branch. Let's look at where to see the current rate, how to exchange, how the buy and sell rates differ and how not to lose on the spread.

Where to see the rate

• in the app — the current buy and sell rate of the main currencies;
• on the bank's website — cash and cashless exchange rates;
• at a branch — the rate on the board for cash operations.

Note: the cashless rate in the app is usually more favourable than the cash rate at the counter.

2. Choose the direction — for example hryvnia → dollar or dollar → hryvnia.
3. Enter the amount and check the rate and total.

Buy rate, sell rate and the NBU rate

• buy rate — at which the bank buys currency from you;
• sell rate — at which the bank sells currency to you;
• NBU rate — the official one, used for accounting, not for exchange;
• the difference between buy and sell (the spread) is the bank's earning on the exchange.

What to watch for

• the rate changes during the day — check the current value before exchanging;
• for large amounts, compare the bank's rate with exchange offices;
• online exchange in the app is often more favourable and faster than the counter.
