The government has extended the fuel cashback program

The Cabinet of Ministers has decided to extend the fuel cashback program through May 31, 2026, due to persistently high fuel prices and the program’s popularity among citizens. 

This was reported by the Ministry of Economy.

Starting May 1, the maximum payment amount will be 500 UAH per month per user, based on an analysis of actual payments to most participants. Since the program launched on March 20, over 2 million Ukrainians have received payments, with 91% of users being owners of budget-friendly cars.

Depending on the type of fuel, savings for drivers range from 2 to 13 UAH per liter, specifically 15% on diesel, 10% on gasoline, and 5% on autogas. A total of 219 gas station operators across the country have joined the initiative. Funds accrued under the “National Cashback” program can be spent on utilities, medicine, books, or donated to support the Armed Forces.

The Ministry of Economyhas announced when the cashback for January will be received.

The Ministry of Economy explained whether the “National Cashback” program will continue in July.

The government explained why they introduced a cashback program for fuel instead of lowering fuel prices.
