Ukrainians will be able to receive compensation for fuel in the following amounts: 15% for diesel fuel; 10% for gasoline; and 5% for autogas. The cashback on each liter will range from 2 to 11 hryvnias, and the maximum monthly amount is 1000 hryvnias per person.
The “fuel” cashback program will be in effect until May 1 of this year.
How to join the program
To receive compensation for fuel expenses, Ukrainians need to:
- Join the program. To do this, they must open a special “National Cashback” card at a partner bank.
- Pay for fuel using the card linked to the program.
- Receive cashback and spend it on items from the list of goods.
It will not be possible to withdraw cash from the card – it can only be used for cashless payments.
When will the money “drop” into the card
Cashback for fuel purchases is credited the next day, and is paid out by the end of the following month after visiting the gas station.
For example, compensation for fuel purchased in March will be credited to the “National Cashback” card by the end of April.
What cashback can be spent on
Money from the National Cashback card can be spent on:
- utilities and postal services;
- charity, support for the Armed Forces;
- food products;
- medications, medical supplies, and medical devices;
- books and other printed products of Ukrainian production that are registered in the “National Cashback” program and sold at participating retail outlets.
Gas station apps are not suitable
When purchasing fuel through a gas station app, cashback will not be credited. Compensation can only be obtained after the actual payment for gasoline or diesel at the station, with the issuance of a fiscal receipt indicating the purchased fuel.
We remind you that the situation in the Middle East has led to instability in the global energy market. Oil prices surged to 100 dollars per barrel, after which they began to gradually decrease – currently, Brent oil is trading at about 96 dollars per barrel.
In addition, the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine has approached the largest gas station networks demanding explanations for price increases. According to the head of the AMC, Pavlo Kyrylenko, demand for A-95 gasoline has increased by 40-70%, and for diesel by 60-140%.
