You can use Coinepay Global Remittance to send money from Germany to Poland. Before you start, check how your recipient wants to receive it: into a Polish bank account, through an eligible mobile wallet if offered for your transfer, or by cash pickup. The available options, exchange rate and fees appear in the Coinepay app before you confirm.
What you need before sending
Register for Coinepay and complete identity verification before using the transfer service. Have your own accurate details ready, along with your recipient’s full legal name as it appears on their bank account or identity document. Ask the recipient to confirm their payout details directly rather than relying on an old message or a saved account number.
The details you need depend on the payout method:
- Bank deposit: Get the recipient’s full legal name and Polish account number or IBAN. A Polish IBAN starts with PL and has 28 characters; the domestic account number, known as an NRB, has 26 digits. Use the format requested in the Coinepay transfer form. If the form or receiving bank asks for a SWIFT/BIC or further bank instructions, obtain them from the recipient’s bank.
- Mobile wallet: If a wallet option appears for Poland, get the exact wallet and recipient details requested in the app. Confirm with the recipient that their account can receive this kind of international payout before you send.
- Cash pickup: If offered, enter the recipient’s name exactly as it appears on the identification they will present. Check the pickup instructions and available locations shown for the transfer before confirming.
Poland’s local currency is the Polish złoty (PLN). If you fund a transfer in EUR and the recipient is to receive PLN, review the displayed conversion before confirming. Ask the recipient whether their account can receive the selected payout currency; a bank may apply its own receiving or conversion rules.
How to send money from Germany to Poland
- Sign in to your verified account. Open the Coinepay app or 24/7 self-service dashboard. If you have not registered, create an account and complete the identity checks shown.
- Start a Global Remittance transfer. Select Germany as the sending location and Poland as the destination. Enter the amount and choose the sending and receiving currencies available for that transfer.
- Choose a payout method. Select bank deposit, an eligible mobile wallet or cash pickup from the options the app presents for Poland. The details form will depend on your selection.
- Enter the recipient’s details. Use their full legal name and the account, wallet or pickup information requested. For a bank deposit, check every character of the IBAN or account number against details supplied by the recipient.
- Review before confirming. Read the exchange rate, fees, payout currency, recipient details and amount shown in the app. Correct any mismatch now. The rate and fees are shown before you confirm the transfer.
- Confirm and track. Follow the app’s confirmation steps, keep the transfer reference and use Coinepay’s status tracking to follow its progress. Share pickup instructions with the recipient only when applicable, using a secure channel.
Transfers are subject to identity verification, sanctions screening and local regulations. Coinepay may request documents explaining the transfer’s purpose or the source of funds. Provide accurate information through the requested channel; do not ask someone else to send or receive on your behalf to avoid a check.
Bank deposit: Polish account formats and bank codes
For a Polish bank deposit, the IBAN is usually the clearest account identifier to request. The PL prefix and 26 digits make a 28-character Polish IBAN. Those digits include a bank identifier; you should not invent a separate branch code or substitute another country’s routing format. Copy the number from the recipient’s bank details and verify the account holder’s name with them.
The additional bank information needed depends on how the payment is routed. For a EUR SEPA transfer from Germany, the recipient’s IBAN is the account identifier, and the payer should not be required to provide a separate BIC. Do not assume every transfer offered in the Coinepay app uses that route. For a non-SEPA or SWIFT transfer, ask the receiving bank whether its SWIFT/BIC or other receiving instructions are required, then enter only the fields the app requests.
If your recipient has both EUR and PLN accounts, ask which account should receive the money and in which currency. An account denominated in EUR is not automatically the right destination for a PLN payout, or vice versa. The recipient can check with their bank about incoming international payments and any conversion the bank may perform.
Mobile wallet and cash pickup: what the recipient needs
Mobile wallet
Coinepay supports mobile-wallet payouts as a global remittance method, but check the app for the options actually offered for your Germany-to-Poland transfer. There is no confirmed list of Polish wallets available as direct payouts for this route. BLIK allows people to receive phone-number transfers through participating Polish banking apps, but that domestic capability does not establish that BLIK can receive a Coinepay international payout. Do not enter a BLIK-registered phone number unless the app explicitly offers the relevant payout option and the recipient confirms they can use it. For any offered wallet, follow the app’s requirements for the recipient’s registered name, provider and account or phone details.
Cash pickup
If cash pickup is available for your transfer, select it in the app and review the pickup instructions before confirming. The recipient should know the pickup location or collection options provided for the transfer, carry an accepted identity document matching the name entered, and have any reference or other information specified in the instructions. They should check the location’s requirements before travelling. Do not assume a particular agent, location or collection time is available until it appears in the transfer details.
Recipient-side checks in Poland
Tell your recipient the payout method and currency you selected, and ask them to watch for any request from their bank, wallet provider or pickup agent. Receiving institutions may verify identity, ask about the purpose of a payment or apply their own account policies. Keep a record of the transfer and its purpose in case either side needs to answer a legitimate question.
If the payment is a gift, Polish gift-tax rules may apply depending on the relationship and circumstances. For some eligible close-family gifts, an exemption can depend on proof that the money was received into an account or by postal order and on filing the SD-Z2 notification when required. Cash pickup may therefore have different documentation implications from an account deposit. The recipient should check current Polish tax guidance or seek qualified advice for their situation. Institutional reporting and a recipient’s personal tax obligations are different matters; neither should be avoided by changing the payment’s stated purpose.
Troubleshooting a transfer
- Wrong recipient details: If you notice an incorrect name, IBAN, account number or pickup detail, check the transfer status and contact Coinepay support promptly with the reference. Do not assume a submitted transfer can be edited or recalled. Incorrect details can lead to rejection or return.
- Compliance review: Follow requests for identity, source-of-funds or purpose-of-payment documents. Coinepay screens customers and counterparties against sanctions lists and does not serve sanctioned persons or residents of jurisdictions under comprehensive sanctions.
- Transfer taking longer than expected: Check status tracking first. Weekends, public holidays, funding steps, receiving-bank processing and security checks can affect progress. If the status is unclear, give support the transfer reference rather than starting a duplicate payment.
- Returned or rejected payment: Check the account details and currency with the recipient before sending again. A receiving bank may reject a payment even when the entered details appear correct; the recipient may need to ask that bank why. Check the transfer record and contact support for the next steps.
The safest final check is a simple one: confirm the recipient’s legal name, payout details and currency with them, then compare those details with Coinepay’s review screen before you authorize the transfer.

FAQ
What bank details do I need to send money to Poland?
Get the recipient’s full legal name and Polish account number or IBAN. A Polish IBAN starts with PL and has 28 characters. If the app or receiving bank requests a SWIFT/BIC or other instructions, obtain them from the bank.
Can I send money directly to BLIK in Poland?
BLIK phone-number transfers in Polish banking apps do not establish that BLIK is available as a direct international payout. Check the Coinepay app for the payout options offered for your transfer.
Can my recipient collect cash in Poland?
Choose cash pickup if it appears as an option for your transfer. Review the collection instructions; the recipient will need identification matching the name you entered and any reference specified.
What should I do if I entered the wrong Polish IBAN?
Check the transfer status and contact Coinepay support promptly with the transfer reference. Do not assume a submitted transfer can be changed or recalled.
