Completion of testing
Mikhail Fedorov, head of the Ministry of Digital Transformation, announced the completion of public beta testing of the National Cashback program. He described it as one of the most comprehensive services in the history of the digital state of Ukraine.
Testing process and results
The National Cashback test period started on September 2 and lasted more than a month. During this time, specialists from the Ministry of Digital Development identified and eliminated shortcomings, and also analyzed user feedback. Now everything is ready for the full-scale launch of the service.
Participation statistics
According to Fedorov, during testing, over a million users joined the National Cashback program, who can already see the corresponding section in the "Diya" application. Previously, it was reported that 1.6 million Ukrainians participating in the program received UAH 42 million in cashback per month. At the moment, the amount of accrued refund has increased to UAH 73.2 million. Information about the amounts actually paid has not yet been disclosed.
Scope of the program
Currently, 1,317 Ukrainian manufacturers have joined the National Cashback program. The register of participating goods includes 260 thousand different items.
Conditions of participation
According to the rules of the program, citizens have the opportunity to return 10% of the cost of Ukrainian goods included in a special register. The maximum refund amount is limited to 3000 UAH per month. Funds are credited through the Diya application, and payments are made to a specially issued card. It is important to note that to participate in the National Cashback program, you must provide access to view transactions on the bank card (or cards) used to pay for purchases. Cashback is accrued automatically.

Wow, UAH 73.2 million cashback has already been credited! 🤑 This is a huge amount. Is anyone already participating in the program? Share your experience!
Hans
I'm participating! I have already received about 500 UAH back. This is a great incentive to buy Ukrainian goods. True, it’s a little annoying that you need to give access to card transactions 🤔
Sophia
Hans, I’m not worried about access. After all, this is a government program and it must be safe. But now you can support the domestic manufacturer and save money 💪🇺🇦
Pierre
I agree with Sophia! By the way, does anyone know which products are included in the program? I would like to buy a new laptop, I wonder if it is covered by National Cashback?
Giovanni
Again these fashionable things... Natskeshbek, Diya... Why complicate everything? We used to live without it and it was fine. They only collect personal data, but what's the point?
Olivia
Giovanni, don't be such a skeptic! 😊 This is progress. Pierre, I heard that the program includes various products - from food to equipment. But it’s better to check in the Diya application, there should be a complete list there.

Guys, have you noticed that there are already more than a million users? This is great! 🎉 I hope this helps our economy. I’m planning to buy a new Ukrainian-made washing machine.
Hans
Maria, great idea! I also try to choose Ukrainian. By the way, I wonder how quickly cashback is credited? Does anyone have experience?
