In the morning of August 27, 2026, Ukrainian banks and exchange offices updated the dollar and euro exchange rates. According to data from the Minfin portal, the average rate of the US dollar at exchange offices is 44.77 UAH for sale and 44.68 UAH for purchase, which is 3 and 2 kopecks lower than the previous values, respectively.

Where it is more profitable to buy and sell currency

Next come PUMB at the commercial rate (44.80 UAH), Monobank (44.83 UAH), and PrivatBank for cards (44.84 UAH). The US dollar is sold at the highest price by PUMB at its branches — 45.00 UAH, and by Oschadbank for cards — 44.90 UAH. The difference between the lowest and highest dollar selling rates is 25 kopecks, which makes the choice of institution significant for large exchanges.

Currency purchase rates: what banks offer for the dollar and euro

For those selling currency to a bank, the most favorable rate is PUMB's commercial rate for the dollar — 44.50 UAH. Next come Oschadbank via "Mobile Oschad" (44.45 UAH), Monobank (44.43 UAH), Oschadbank for cards and PUMB at its branches (44.40 UAH each), as well as PrivatBank for cards (44.30 UAH). At PrivatBank branches, the dollar purchase rate, according to the source data, was not fully specified due to a technical error in the publication. For the euro, it is most profitable to sell to Oschadbank via "Mobile Oschad" — 51.80 UAH, then Oschadbank for cards and PUMB (51.70 UAH each), Monobank (51.67 UAH), PrivatBank for cards (51.60 UAH), and at PrivatBank branches (51.35 UAH).

Contradictory data

The original RBC-Ukraine material contains a technical inaccuracy: in the list of dollar purchase rates it states "and at PrivatBank branches4" without providing a specific numerical value. This is likely a typesetting typo; however, the exact dollar purchase rate at PrivatBank branches in the morning of August 27 is not recorded in the text. In addition, in the section on the euro purchase rate for PrivatBank cards, the figure 51.60 UAH is given, whereas in the section on the euro sale rate for cards of the same bank it is 52.35 UAH; a difference of 75 kopecks between purchase and sale within a single bank is abnormally high compared to other institutions and may indicate either a specific internal rate or an inaccuracy in the source data. Readers are advised to verify the current values directly in banking applications before making an exchange.

Context and recommendations

The dynamics of August 27 confirm a trend toward a gradual weakening of the dollar and euro in the domestic market of Ukraine, although the pace of decline remains moderate — within a few kopecks per day. Experts remind that the rate at different institutions may differ significantly depending on the method of exchange (branch, mobile app, card, commercial rate), as well as the volume of the transaction.
