The currency in Poland is the Zloty, although many places will accept Euros, and US dollars. Credit cards are widely accepted in almost all shops, restaurants and hotels, although you should check before making payment.

Tipping is not viewed as compulsory in Poland, although many people round up the bill if the service is very good.

Tax is included in all purchases at 22%, and now that Poland is a member of the EU, you cannot claim this money back when you leave the country.

The cost of living in Poland is relatively low, with a beer costing around 50p, and a meal available from around £2 depending on the restaurant. Imported goods such as camera film and designer goods are slightly cheaper than in the UK.

The currency in Poland (Krakow) is the zloty, which means ‘golden’ and is abbreviated to zl, with the code PLN used at currency exchanges. It is divided into 100 units called groszy in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50gr coins. There are also zl 1, 2 and 5 coins. The bank notes are in denominations of z1 10, 20, 50, 10 and 200.

Krakow Currency

The currency in Poland is zloty nevertheless you can easily change pounds, euro and dollars here in Poland. As someone has previously pointed out, if you're coming from U.K., make sure you don't have any Scotish pounds on you because they are really hard to exchange and if you do finally find some place that will exchange them you will get less money for them as you would for the British pounds. Good luck and enjoy your trip to Krakow which I'm sure you will as Krakow is the best city of Poland :)

I'm making good profit with penny stock
Check here http://trade-pennystock.checkhere.info

Many new investors are lured to the appeal of a penny stock due to the low price and potential for rapid growth which may be as high as several hundred percent in a few days. Similarly, severe loss can occur and many penny stocks lose all of their value in the long term. Accordingly, the SEC warns that penny stocks are high risk investments and new investors should be aware of the risks involved but you can even make very big money. These risks include limited liquidity, lack of financial reporting, and fraud. A penny stock is a common stock that trades for less than $5 a share. While penny stocks generally are quoted over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board or in the Pink Sheets, they may also trade on securities exchanges, including foreign securities exchanges. In addition, penny stocks include the securities of certain private companies with no active trading market. Although a penny stock is said to be "thinly traded," share volumes traded daily can be in the hundreds of millions for a sub-penny stock. Legitimate information on penny stock companies can be difficult to find and a stock can be easily manipulated.

You should be able to get Zloty in any UK high street bank. Many will buy back unspent currency when you return for no extra fee.

The easiest thing is to get some Zloty before you go - the exchange rates in the airports are rarely good.

get an account with nationwide. they allow you to draw out money from cash machines all over the world with no charge. i got one before i went around europe in summer i wasnt able to get a visa one (which would allow me to pay on my card) i got one you could only use at cash points. i went to denmark- germany-poland-hungary-austria-italy-switzerland-france-belgium and the netherlands and never had a problem with it anywhere.
the answer to your question by the way is Polish Zloty. PLN which which one PLN is currently worth about 20p.
word of advice you dont buy your bus tickets on the bus you buy them from kiosks. we got on the bus in warsaw and tried to buy tickets but we got special taxed which we paid after arguing and mentions of 'policie' (£80). but if you get caught doin this apparently according to our hostel tell them you have no money or ID then they will write you an invoice you dont have to pay because they have no way of tracking you!
Krakow is fantastic if you get chance take the train to oswiem and go see auchwitz(takes about 2hours to get there by train) dont let a 'tour guide' sway you in at the station unless they are official chances are if theyre asking you if you want taking they are not.

A common misconception is that you will have to be a financial and business expert in order to successfully trade binary options. However, this is not true at all. Learn here https://tr.im/CyBbP

Perhaps it’s true when it comes to traditional stocks trading but definitely not true in the case of binaries. You don’t have to be an expert to predict the movement of certain assets.

The currency used is Polish "zloty".

However, Euro, US $ and pound sterling will be exchanged in every currency exchange (Pol. "Kantor wymiany walut" or simply "kantor") office, most banks, and many post offices.

Credit cards are widely accepted.
