Over the course of a year, the number of transactions through online cash registers in Ukraine increased by 2.2 times. What is the reason?
In 9 months of this year, Ukrainians made 3 billion payments through online cash registers (PRRO).

The number of transactions through online cash registers increased by 2.2 times in 9 months of 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year — up to 3 billion, writes Opendatabot.
This is almost half of the total number of operations during the 4 years of the system's existence. For comparison, the average number of transactions per month this year and in 2021 differs 24 times: 340 million versus 14 million.
The total amount of checks is over UAH 2.35 trillion. Ukrainians spent almost half of them this year — UAH 1.07 trillion. Last year, the corresponding figure was UAH 503 billion, which is 2.1 times less.
Although Ukrainians spent more money, they did so at the expense of an increase in the number of purchases and a decrease in the average check. For example, this year the average check was UAH 345. This is 3.7 times less than in 2020, when it was UAH 1,300.
Such a surge in transactions happened due to the introduction of the requirement to use the PRRO and PRO systems for business. A fine will be imposed on the business for violating this obligation.
We will remind that earlier it became known about the intention of several state structures, including the Ministry of Finance and the Security Service of Ukraine, to strengthen the requirements for software registrars of settlement operations (PRRO) . The purpose of the potential draft law is to eliminate abuses and the loss of a part of tax revenues to the state budget.
We would like to remind that since October 1 of last year, fines for non-use of cash registers (RRO/PRRO) started working again for businesses. In the last three months of 2023, the tax office detected 9,100 violations and fined businesses UAH 136.1 million.
