Since the start of the program on December 1, Ukrainians have submitted almost 3 million applications for UAH 1,000 in Winter eSupport through the Diia app.
“eSupport works for everyone in Ukraine – both adults and children. Important figures prove the timeliness of the program,”
– says President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
This is an absolute record for digital services, says Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov:
“Undoubtedly, it has become the most massive online service in the world.”
Winter eSupport: statistics for the first day
- 551,000+ applications were submitted for children.
- 64% of users are women, 36% are men.

Winter eSupport: where to spend it
The funds can be used to pay for Ukrainian goods and services, including utilities, Ukrainian medicines, railway tickets, and Ukrainian books.
It is possible to direct the payment to support the Ukrainian Defense Forces through volunteer funds. And this should be the main direction for allocating funds, as it is more than UAH 30 billion nationwide.
The funds can be received within 3 months – until February 28 – and spent by the end of 2025.
