Best freelance, gig and earning platforms in Ukraine
Ukraine has its own freelance, delivery and selling platforms alongside global marketplaces. Freelancehunt, which calls itself Ukraine's number one freelance exchange, reports more than 1.2 million registered freelancers, with 288,000 active in the past year. Kabanchik connects customers with local specialists for everyday tasks, and Preply, founded by Ukrainian entrepreneurs in 2012, hires online tutors. Uklon, a ride-hailing and delivery app acquired by Kyivstar in 2025, and Bolt both recruit drivers, and Glovo runs food delivery. Rozetka and Prom.ua host online sellers, Work.ua and Robota.ua list jobs, and monobank is a mobile-only bank with about 10 million customers. Money is in hryvnia (UAH). PayPal gives Ukrainian personal accounts expanded services on a temporary basis: receiving is free and withdrawals to cards carry no PayPal fee, with the published terms applying up to 30 September 2026. Wise sends UAH only to personal IBAN accounts, not cards or business accounts, and Payoneer partners with PrivatBank, Alfa-Bank and monobank. Tip: keep a second payout route, since PayPal's arrangement is temporary.

What are the best freelance and gig platforms in Ukraine?
Freelancehunt for local freelance projects, Kabanchik for household and everyday tasks, Preply for online tutoring, Uklon or Bolt for driving, Glovo for delivery, and Rozetka or Prom.ua for selling online. Work.ua and Robota.ua list jobs.
How do freelancers in Ukraine get paid by international clients?
Options include PayPal, which Ukrainian personal accounts can use to receive and withdraw to cards under temporary terms, Payoneer, which partners with PrivatBank, Alfa-Bank and monobank, and Wise, which sends UAH to personal IBAN accounts but not to cards or business accounts. Upwork does not list UAH for Direct to Local Bank.
Does PayPal work in Ukraine?
Yes, under temporary terms. PayPal has expanded services for Ukrainian personal accounts to aid humanitarian relief. Receiving personal payments is free and withdrawals to cards have no PayPal fee, with the published terms applying up to 30 September 2026 until further notice. PayPal says it may change these services at any time.
Can people in Ukraine work on Upwork and Fiverr?
Yes, but identity checks matter. In July 2025 Ukrainian media reported that Upwork had mass-suspended Ukrainian accounts after identity-verification checks, and the ministry later confirmed unblocking had begun. Upwork's Direct to Local Bank does not cover UAH. Fiverr pays out via PayPal or Payoneer and requires you to be 18 to withdraw.
Which apps can you drive or deliver for in Ukraine?
Uklon is a Ukrainian ride-hailing and delivery service covering 28 Ukrainian cities, though suspended in Kherson and Mariupol since 2022. Bolt offers rides, food delivery and grocery delivery in Ukraine with sign-up for drivers and couriers, and Glovo resumed limited service after pausing in 2022.
