The process of sending money to Ukraine

In every nation, individuals engage in the act of transferring money. If one has an interest in sending money to Ukraine, it is advised to delve into the following article. Furthermore, restricting money transfers to a single country is not obligatory. Numerous individuals have family members in their motherland, and they desire sending money to Ukraine. In such instances, specialized services serving as intermediaries step in to facilitate these transactions. From the user's perspective, the process appears straightforward, presenting an advantage. However, payment systems perform numerous intricate functions to ensure the smooth execution of these transactions.

Some ways to send money

Gradually, individuals are transitioning towards online money transfers, finding them more convenient compared to conventional and outdated methods. Let's explore how one can perform transactions in Ukraine through the following ways:


  • International payment systems: These systems are widely used across numerous countries, ensuring familiarity among most people. Typically, funds are swiftly credited to the recipient, eliminating the need for prolonged waiting periods.
  • Digital wallets: This represents another contemporary approach to storing and transferring funds, characterized by its unique features and functionalities.
  • Cryptocurrency: Tokens should not be underestimated, as their popularity continues to grow each year. Moreover, they possess distinct advantages that set them apart from other payment systems. For instance, users can enjoy maximum anonymity when conducting transactions.
  • Checks: Although not as commonly utilized, this unconventional method still exists. Online services provide users with checks for specific amounts, which can be utilized for personal purposes or sent to other individuals.
  • Mobile money: Transfers of this nature are often facilitated through platforms like Apple Pay or Google Pay. It is likely that most individuals have already used them at least once and are familiar with their specific usage details.

Furthermore, traditional banking systems continue to maintain their relevance. Each method can be evaluated by experts, and users should carefully choose the option that best suits their needs, considering factors such as payment system features, limits, and more.

To wrap up

When it comes to available options, online platforms stand out among the rest, deserving special mention. Among these platforms, some are remarkably user-friendly as they require minimal data input. However, if one intends to conduct a transaction involving larger sums, additional documents and intricacies must be considered.

One notable feature of these websites is the exclusive reliance on email addresses for transferring funds. It is crucial to double-check the accuracy of the provided fields before finalizing the transaction. Once confirmed, the payment undergoes swift processing, ensuring a prompt completion.

Fed National President Mo Razzaq criticizes Evri’s decision to cut ParcelShop bonuses

Independent retailers rely on parcel services like Evri, but bonus cuts threaten their earnings

Evri retailers to lose £hundreds as weekly volume bonus cut

Independent retailers are furious with parcel carrier Evri after hearing that the weekly volume bonus that they receive is to be cut from April 6. The move is being revealed in a letter sent out to Evri’s network of retailers.

Mo Razzaq, the National President of the Federation of Independent Retailers (the Fed), said that he will lose several hundreds of pounds in bonus payments over a year, as a result.

“In a letter advising of the change, Evri celebrates the continual growth of shopping online in the UK, adding that more and more customers are choosing to use ParcelShops to send, collect and return parcels," he said.

“It goes on to add that parcel volumes have grown by tens of millions across its ParcelShop network, driving additional footfall and revenue benefits to retailers. And it expects this trend to continue.

“Evri then describes ParcelShops as 'the heart of its business' and 'important to our customers' and states that it wants to share that growth with us. Yet in the very next sentence, it advises of a 'small change to the weekly volume bonus, which will take effect from next month'.”

Mr Razzaq said on average he receives £23 a week in bonus payments but because of this change, this will fall to £17.

In its full year of accounts to February 29, 2024, Evri recorded a revenue of £1.7 billion and a record-breaking profit of £117million, which was more than double of the previous year.

Mr Razzaq added: “With Evri announcing record profits and acknowledging the key role that retailers play in this, cutting our bonus payments and denying us hundreds of pounds as a result is a sharp blow indeed.”
