Canadians are in shock as war ravages on in Ukraine. Many of us at PayTrie have struggled with how to best approach this situation and how to best support Ukrainians during this difficult time.

When the official Twitter account of Ukraine tweeted that they are now accepting cryptocurrency donations, we knew this was our chance to help.

Sending donations through traditional payment rails to Ukraine has many unknowns. Will the donations make it to the Ukrainians? Will the Ukrainians be able to utilize the funds given the banking situation? Will the funds get to the Ukrainians in time to make a difference?

By sending cryptocurrency, we know the funds will be immediately available to those in need.

Starting now, 100% of fees + gas fees from transfers sent to the designated wallet will be retroactively matched by PayTrie and donated to the same wallet on a weekly basis. That means you can now donate to Ukraine using Interac e-transfers, and know that 100% of your proceeds to go the people.

All you need to do is book a transaction to convert CAD to USDT and send the USDT to their designated wallet address. ERC-20: 0x165CD37b4C644C2921454429E7F9358d18A45e14

Note: Be sure that you are sending to the correct wallet address. Double check the official Ukraine Twitter account to ensure you have the correct address.

We all hope that this conflict ends peacefully and with as little casualty as possible. We, as Canadians, will continue to stand with the people of Ukraine.

— Team PayTrie ⏫ ❤️ 🇺🇦
