Swedish Krona (SEK) Betting Sites & Online Casinos

Swedish Krona, or kronor as its plural form, is the official currency of the Scandinavian country Sweden. The country borders Norway, Finland, and is connected to Denmark via the bridge, Øresund. The country is the third largest by area in Europe with over 9.9 million people living in it.

With a big population, it comes as no surprise that betting is a popular pastime with a good range of bookmakers, casino operators, bingo sites, and poker sites that are happy to accept deposits in SEK. Coral, Betfair, Betfred, Betsafe, BetVictor, and Ladbrokes are just some of the many brands who are happy to accept the Swedish Krona.

About the Currency

The Swedish Krona came into effect in 1873 as a result of the Scandinavian Monetary Union with Denmark and Norway where Sweden's currency was called the krona and the others were called the krone. Despite the union no longer existing, the countries maintained the same names of their currencies, which are no longer linked to one another.

The name "krona" means "crown" in English with the Swedish Krona's symbol being kr. Bank notes include 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 kr with coins including 1, 5, and 10 kr.

The Krona has always been pretty stable in comparison the Euro, however, the recent 2012 Greece crisis has since dropped the Euro and made the Krona much stronger. For the most accurate SEK exchange rates, XE.com provides the most up-to-date rates.
