FAQ AFTER REGISTRATION

What can I use the assistance for?  

The assistance is to help you to cover your basic needs. BLIK checks can be withdrawn in all major ATM networks in Poland.

You will receive the assistance for 3 months in a lump sum.

After you receive your BLIK checks, they will be valid for 90 days. After this time, there will no longer be access to the assistance. 

Can I use BLIK checks outside of Poland?  

You can withdraw the assistance in Poland only. However, you can spend the money wherever you want.
