In Diia, barcodes can be used to quickly check whether a product is included in the National Cashback programme. This is reported by "Komersant Ukrainian" with reference to a statement by the Minister of Economy of Ukraine Yulia Svyrydenko.
“We have launched a barcode scanner so that Ukrainians can conveniently check whether a product is Ukrainian and whether it is eligible for cashback in the Diia app. Already, users have received UAH 90 million in cashback for purchasing Ukrainian goods. We hope that the scanner will help raise awareness among Ukrainians about which Ukrainian producers are represented on the market and motivate them to buy domestic products,” Svyrydenko said.
