Through payment systems for money transfers, the largest amounts of funds came to Ukraine from the USA and Germany in 2025.
This is evidenced by data from the National Bank, Ukrainian News Agency reports.

In 2025, 19 payment systems for money transfers were actually operating on the territory of Ukraine, of which 12 were created by residents and 7 by non-residents (of which three systems were from the USA, two from the UK, and one each from Georgia and Canada).
Last year, the volume of domestic transfers made through payment systems for money transfers amounted to UAH 1.3 trillion (USD 31.6 billion in equivalent).
This is approximately the same as in 2024.
The average amount of one transfer within Ukraine in 2025 was UAH 1,206, which also almost corresponds to the indicators of 2024 (in 2024 – UAH 1,231).
The leader in the amount of transfers within Ukraine was the payment system PrivatMoney (59.3% of all domestic transfers).
In 2025, USD 2.5 billion in equivalent were transferred to Ukraine using payment systems for transferring funds (created by both residents and non-residents) (in 2024, the same amount was received in Ukraine).
The average amount of one such cross-border transfer to Ukraine last year was USD 274 (in 2024 – USD 267).
Through money transfer payment systems, the largest amounts of funds to Ukraine last year came from the USA (22.4%), Germany (12.4%), Israel (11.1%), Great Britain (10.7%) and Italy (10.5%).
The leaders in terms of the amount of transfers to Ukraine were the following three money transfer payment systems:
- Western Union (payment organization - US resident) - 39.7% of all transfers;
- RIA (payment organization - US resident) - 21.4% of all transfers;
- MoneyGram (payment organization - US resident) - 17.8% of all transfers.
It is noted that it was through the channel of money transfer payment systems that humanitarian aid payments to Ukrainians from a number of international organizations continued in 2025.
Traditionally, in previous years (in particular, before the full-scale invasion), approximately a quarter of all private money transfers to Ukraine were received through payment systems.
In 2025, this trend intensified - almost a third of private transfers (almost 31%) were received through payment systems.
Thus, in total in 2025, according to preliminary data, more than USD 8 billion in equivalent were transferred to Ukraine from all over the world, including transfers through official channels (banks, international money transfer systems, post offices) and unofficial ones (by transferring money from hand to hand).
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, during the martial law period, transfers from Ukraine abroad are limited.
