Starting from March 1, an updated model of the National Cashback program began operating in Ukraine.. This means that users of special cards will receive not a fixed percentage, but a differentiated one - 5% or 15%, which will depend on the category of Ukrainian-made goods. PrivatBank reported this.

The bank recalled that due to differentiation, there is potential for the substitution of Ukrainian goods with foreign ones in the Ukrainian markets, where there is a significant volume of imports.

Key details of the updated program:.

15% cashback - on Ukrainian-made goods in categories where the share of imports exceeds 35%. We are talking about non-food products (cosmetics, household chemicals, clothing, shoes), as well as certain food products (hard and soft cheeses, some types of cereals and pasta).

5% cashback - other Ukrainian goods, where the share of imports is below 35% (sweets, drinks, pharmaceutical products, most meat, dairy products and groceries).
