The Ukrainian government has decided to extend the deadline for utilizing the National Cashback program until July 31. According to the Ministry of Digital Transformation, citizens will begin receiving their April payments on July 3, which will include fuel cashback of up to 1,000 UAH as part of a seasonal support initiative for drivers.
The Ministry emphasized that accumulated funds will not expire automatically; they can be used until July 31 for paying utility bills, purchasing medications, supporting Ukrainian products, acquiring books, using postal services, or donating to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Cashback for May and June will fall under the second phase of the program, which will remain effective until the end of martial law, but no later than April 30, 2028.
The ministry noted that over 5 million Ukrainians are currently benefiting from the program, which includes participation from thousands of manufacturers and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian goods.
Background
- The “Made in Ukraine” website states that the National Cashback program is a government initiative aimed at supporting domestic production, encouraging the purchase of Ukrainian-made goods, and fostering a cashless economy. To date, more than 7.3 million Ukrainians, 1,800 manufacturers, and approximately 400,000 products have participated.
- In February 2026, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine updated the rules for the National Cashback program, introducing a differentiated model with two cashback levels (15% and 5%, depending on the category of goods) effective from March 1.
