Now you only have to pay for Internet. It used to be ten offices. Now &#8211; one site. Previously &#8211; 50 certificates in queues. Now &#8211; three or four clicks on the smartphone.

According to the National Bank, eight out of ten payment transactions in 2020 were non-cash. At the same time, the number of institutions accepting payment cards increased by a third and the number of contactless terminals increased by 11.2%. Under the conditions of quarantine restrictions, non-cash instruments have shown their advantage over traditional payment methods, so it is expected that the cashless trend will continue to develop in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that a significant amount of transactions in the shadow economy are carried out through cash. According to the calculations of the Ministry of Economy, the level of the shadow economy in Ukraine in 2019 was 28% of GDP. According to the state strategy for the development of the financial sector until 2025, it is planned to reduce it to 20%. According to business representatives, stimulating non-cash forms of payment will achieve the desired level of de-shadowing of the economy, as well as significantly reduce the risks of dubious cash transactions.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>For more information, see: https:\/\/eba.com.ua\/na-platformi-eba-obgovoryly-pytannya-rozvytku-cashless-v-ukrayini\/<b><\/b><\/p>\n<p> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On August 24, 2021, on Independence Day, Ukraine will enter paperless mode, said President Volodymyr Zelensky.
