What Is Paysafecard? How the PIN Works, Where to Buy & Exchange a Voucher

What is Paysafecard?

Paysafecard is a prepaid payment method: you buy a voucher with cash and pay online by entering its unique 16-digit PIN code — no bank account and no credit card required. Founded in 2000 and headquartered in Vienna, Austria, it is today available in around 50 countries and sold at more than 600,000 outlets worldwide — supermarkets, petrol stations, kiosks, newsstands and banks.

Each voucher is loaded in your local currency — one of roughly 28 supported currencies such as Pound Sterling (GBP), Euro (EUR), US Dollar (USD), Polish Zloty (PLN), Czech Koruna (CZK), Swiss Franc (CHF), Canadian Dollar (CAD), Australian Dollar (AUD) and more. Vouchers come in fixed denominations (for example 10, 25, 50 or 100), you can combine up to 10 PINs for a larger payment, and any unused balance stays available for later.

What is a myPaysafe account?

Beyond single vouchers, Paysafecard offers a personal account called myPaysafe, where you can store your PIN codes and manage your balance in one place instead of keeping paper vouchers. Once a PIN is added to the account, you pay with your myPaysafe login rather than the code itself.

Good to know: on Ukash-Wallet you can exchange not only a voucher PIN but also the balance held in your "myPaysafe" account — both are converted through the same simple process.

What can you exchange Paysafecard for?

On our website you can exchange your Paysafecard voucher or account balance for e-money and crypto across many directions: PayPal, Revolut, Skrill, Wise, Payoneer, Neteller, WebMoney, Alipay, BLIK, a Visa / Mastercard cash-out or a bank transfer in 20+ currencies. You can also buy cryptocurrency — Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), USDT (TRC-20, ERC-20, BEP-20, SOL, POL), USDC, Litecoin (LTC), Solana (SOL), Tron (TRX), Ripple (XRP), Monero (XMR) and many more — or swap one coin for another.
