As of 1 July 2026, Jacek Kinecki has taken over as Chief Executive Officer of Currency One, the operator of Poland’s largest online currency exchange platforms, Walutomat and InternetowyKantor.pl.
Kinecki is one of the most experienced executives in Poland’s cashless payments and e-commerce sectors.
For more than a decade, he was a key figure within Przelewy24, operated by PayPro S.A. He progressed through the company from Sales and Marketing Director to Chief Commercial Officer and Management Board member, before becoming CEO in 2022.
Under his leadership, Przelewy24 strengthened its position as a leader in the Polish online payments market. The company successfully completed a consolidation process with the Dotpay and eCard brands, while also integrating into the international structures of Scandinavian group Nets and European payments giant Nexi.
Kinecki is also a recognised expert of the Chamber of Digital Economy and a speaker at major conferences focused on digital transformation and fintech.
“Taking the helm at Currency One is both a unique challenge and a natural next step in the development of modern financial services. Walutomat and InternetowyKantor.pl are platforms with a strong and established market position, significant customer trust and considerable potential for launching new products, including in the areas of process automation and open banking,” said Jacek Kinecki, CEO of Currency One.
“We intend to use my experience in the online payments market to support the dynamic growth of Currency One’s operations.”
The appointment of the new CEO comes at a time of intensive product development at Currency One. The company is planning to launch new digital services for businesses, including online merchants, as well as individual customers. These initiatives are expected to include eSIM data packages available through the company’s mobile app.
The new CEO’s strategic experience in scaling businesses and building long-term partnerships is expected to support Currency One’s ambition to maintain a leading market position amid growing competition.
