Ukrainian Hyrvnia Currency Poker

Ukrainian poker players interested in playing poker online using Ukrainian Hyrvnias to fund poker site accounts will find this page a resource guide to online poker sites allowing Ukraine  Hyrvnia currency payments. Below are the best poker sites that support Ukrainian Hyrvnia as a real money online poker currecy to deposit:

The Ukrainian Hryvnia is a young currency, having only been used in its modern day format since 1996. The Hyrvnia currency was initially used throughout the middle ages of the present Ukranian territory. The Hyrvnia was succeeded by the Karbovanet before the Ukrainian state reverted back to Hyrvnia due to hyperinflation.

The Hryvnia uses a subdivision currency called Kopiyok with 100 Kopiyok equaling 1 Hryvnia. The Hryvnia uses a symbol similar to the Euro. The symbol is the cursive form of the Ukrainian letter He with a set of horizontals across the cursive letter. The Hryvnia is currently only used in the Ukraine and comes in a variety of coin amounts as well as bank notes.

Poker Sites Accepting Ukrainian Hyrvnia

Poker is considered legal for Ukrainian residents. However, the Ukrainian poker market is not considered large enough for online poker sites to offer the Hryvnia as a valid currency for game play. The majority of poker sites like to maintain a stable of only the most popular currencies in the world which often includes the top 10 currencies traded on the foreign market. The Hryvnia is not a currency actively traded in the foreign market and is only used in the Ukraine. This makes the Hryvnia an unfeasible option for online poker sites to include.

Ukrainian Hryvnia Poker Deposit Methods

There are currently no online deposit institutions that offer the ability to maintain an account in Ukrainian Hryvnia. The Hryvnia is not available as a valid currency largely due to its lack of purchasing power and the fact that it is only used in the Ukraine. Players who are native to the Ukraine and use the Hryvnia will have to exchange for US dollars, Euros or another major currency before using an online deposit institution.
