Buying Polish zloty: FAQs
What is the currency in Poland?
The Polish zloty currency is only used in Poland – the word ‘zloty’ translates to ‘golden’ in Polish. You’ll find that banknotes are issued in 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 zloty. Coins consist of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 groszy, as well as 1, 2 and 5 zloty. Sainsbury’s Bank do not sell or buy coins.
Can I sell my unused Polish zloty?
Don’t worry if you have left over zloty notes after your trip to Poland. Simply bring them to one of our instore bureaux and we’ll change your Polish zloty back to pounds. We buy back most foreign currency notes in denominations we sell (buy back rates vary daily).
Where can I order Polish zloty?
You can order your currency for Poland from Sainsbury’s Bank. We like to make things as easy as possible for you so you can concentrate on planning your dream trip. That’s why it’s quick and simple to order currency with us, online, over the phone or instore.
Are Euros accepted in Poland?
The local currency in Poland is the zloty however, you may find some restaurants or shops in major cities accept euros. But if you’re travelling outside of the tourist hub, you will need Polish zloty.
What bank card can I use in Poland?
Credit and debit cards are widely accepted across Poland – especially near tourist attractions – and it’s usually easy to find an ATM. Even small towns tend to have at least one ATM and most accept Visa and Mastercard.
Many banks in Poland will let you withdraw money from their ATMs without charging a transaction fee. Your bank might charge you for international ATM usage though, so make sure you check this before you go.
If given the option to convert your ATM transaction to pounds on the spot, you may want to think carefully. You’ll most likely get a better rate if you stick with Polish zloty.
Should I take cash to Poland?
It’s a good idea to carry some small-denomination notes and coins in cash.
While digital and card payments are widely accepted, cash can still come in handy for tips and smaller payments. Some vendors away from the tourist trail may not take card, nor may they have change for 100zł and 200zł notes. It can be best to take a combination of cash and card if possible.
