In Ukraine over the last year has increased the number of Internet users making online payments. The head of the Internet auction Kopeikoff.com, Artyom Yaremchuk, said that during the first months of the service in Ukraine, more than half of the payments were done via SMS. 20% were done though bank and only 25% were done online.

A year later, 70% of all the payments were done with the help of electronic systems like Portmone, Liqpay and Webmoney, and 20% through terminals. Payments via SMS have been dramatically reduced.
Kopeikoff’s managers explain that this trend is connected to two main factors. On one side, the Internet culture is rapidly growing in Ukraine and on the other side, the online shoppers are more confident on the online payment systems.

Today Kopeikoff is one of the most popular Scandinavian auctions in Ukraine. It was launched just a year ago.
