Exchange Rate:
The Polish Zloty exchange rate may fluctuate many times during the day. Major foreign currencies may be exchanged for Polish Zloty at the banks or exchange counters / kiosks, identified by the name KANTOR. They are located in many places like hotels, train and bus stations at the airport (the worst exchange rate), shopping malls as well as main streets in the cities. Kantors are open between 9:00 am to 7:00-8:00 pm, but some might be open 24 hours. In year 2017 for 1 dollar you will receive between 4.00 - 4.08 zlotych. To check currency exchange  rate, please visit www.xe.com.

In Poland is used Polish Zloty, but some places honor Euro too (example: car rentals or hotels).

An offer to exchange money by an unknown person on the street, while very rare, might be a scam (fake money).

Also there is no requirements to leave tips to taxi driver.  In the hotel you may leave tip for the room service from 5 to 20 zl, and this depends what kind of hotel you stay at.

Holders of credit cards can obtain cash from banks or ATMs. Automated teller machines (ATMs) are widely available throughout major cities in Poland. Most Polish ATMs offer instructions in multiple languages and allow access to U.S. bank accounts. Visitors requiring ATM services should attempt to use machines at more secure or heavily traveled and monitored locations, such as commercial banks, large hotels, and the airport. You should monitor your personal bank account after traveling. But in some smaller towns or  local kiosks you need to pay with cash only.
