About Us

Who we are and what we can do for you
Ukash is a globally-recognised e-commerce cash payment method to enable online purchases using cash, providing freedom from credit and debit card fraud, repudiations and charge-backs, and protecting personal identity. Uniquely numbered Ukash vouchers are widely available through payment terminals in retail outlets and online. Ukash is the brainchild of Scott Thomson, who launched the Switch payment card in the UK.

Regulation and compliance
We’re UK-based in the City of London. Ukash is regulated by the UK Financial Services Authority (FSA) and operates as one of only four Electronic Money Institutions, a status that allows a single maximum online cash payment transaction of up to EUR750.

Users like us because using Ukash is easy and there are no age restrictions. No credit or debit cards, personal or financial details are needed.

Companies like us because we open up new markets to which they can sell their goods and services online. Many people don’t have credit or debit cards, or even bank accounts, and some are simply reluctant to give their personal details online.

A company that accepts Ukash as an alternative way to pay for its goods and services on its website attracts customers who want to pay by cash only.

Widely accepted on the web
Ukash as an alternative payment option is already accepted by hundreds of companies including Skype, Ladbrokes, Entropia Universe and Habbo Hotel.

Expanding fast
Following the successful launch of Ukash in the UK, Spain, Germany & Ireland during 2006, Ukash is also now available in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Poland, Slovakia and Sweden.
