The “RRO/PRRO Analytics in Ukraine: key indicators” dashboard is another step toward a truly digital State Tax Service, which is becoming a provider of open data for businesses and society. Launched in May 2026, the tool visualises a vast array of fiscal receipts and shows how the cash and cashless segments of retail trade operate, giving entrepreneurs a “mirror” of their activity, analysts an objective view of the market, and the STS a basis for a risk‑oriented approach without excessive pressure on compliant businesses.
What exactly the new dashboard shows
The dashboard’s main value lies in concentrating key indicators related to the use of RRO and PRRO in a single public tool. It collects and aggregates fiscal‑receipt data and allows users to track the use of cash registers (how many RRO/PRRO are registered and actually active), the volume of transactions, including those involving excisable goods, the structure of payments (cash/non‑cash) and the overall “economic pulse” of the country.
The data are presented in anonymised form — the dashboard does not show specific taxpayers, only aggregated figures by country and region. This is crucial both for protecting tax secrecy and for maintaining business trust: the tool is designed for analytics, not for “naming and shaming” individual companies. Such a format balances openness with legal confidentiality requirements.
Structure: four data sections
The dashboard consists of four blocks: “Analytics”, “Dynamics”, “Table” and “Map”. “Analytics” provides a summary view of how many businesses and cash registers work with RRO/PRRO, the transaction volumes and the share of excisable goods.
“Dynamics” shows how key indicators change over time, particularly the ratio of cash to cashless payments and the sales of excisable goods, which helps assess trends and the impact of legislative changes. “Table” breaks indicators down by region, while “Map” visually displays where transactions via cash registers are concentrated and where economic activity is lower.
Data sources and coverage period
The dashboard is based on fiscal‑receipt data from RRO and PRRO and currently contains aggregated indicators from 2025 through the first quarter of 2026, with further updates planned on a monthly basis. Because the data are anonymised, the tool combines deep analytics with transparency and safety for taxpayers: fiscal receipts become not only a control instrument, but also a resource for understanding the market without the risk of disclosing personalised information.
Who needs it and why
The dashboard has several distinct target audiences. For businesses, it is primarily a way to see the intensity of transactions in different regions, assess competition and purchasing power, and compare their own turnover with average market figures. Combined with other open data (statistics, demographics, mobility), the tool can underpin decisions on locations, outlet formats and strategies for shifting toward cashless payments.
Media and experts gain an objective dataset for analysing economic activity, which is especially valuable during wartime, when traditional statistics can lag in timeliness or completeness. For society at large, the dashboard offers a clearer view of payment structures, the role of fiscalisation and the scale of the shadow economy, at least through indirect indicators. Finally, for the tax service itself, the tool strengthens the analytical component: instead of blanket audits, it allows a risk‑based approach focused on segments and regions with atypical indicator behaviour.
Another digital tool or a real breakthrough?
The dashboard launch is not a one‑off PR move but part of the STS’s broader strategy to build a digital ecosystem: upgraded IT solutions for analysing RRO/PRRO data are now partly exposed as open data, enhancing transparency and targeting the shadow segment rather than honest taxpayers. The STS has already announced further development — more comparative analytics, deeper breakdowns by regions, activities and payment forms, and clearer visual indicators — so the dashboard could become a primary entry point for analysing SMEs and move the STS closer to a fully data‑driven authority that relies on evidence rather than assumptions.
If you have any questions or issues related to using RRO/PRRO, analysing tax risks or adapting your business processes to the STS’s new digital tools, seek professional advice — together we can turn tax‑law requirements into a competitive advantage for your business.
