The national postal operator, JSC “Ukrposhta,” in partnership with Kasta, is launching the “Ukrposhta Market” marketplace, which offers access to over 10 million products and free delivery to post offices throughout Ukraine.
“This isn’t just another marketplace—it’s a unique one with its own specific positioning: to enable people in every corner of Ukraine to get everything they need, even when air raid sirens are sounding and nearby stores are closed,” explained Ukrposhta CEO Ihor Smiliansky on his Telegram channel on Wednesday.
According to him, to use “Ukrposhta Market,” users need to download or update the “Ukrposhta 2.0” app.
Smiliansky also noted that the marketplace is not subsidized by the government and is a market-driven project.
Among other things, the CEO of the national postal operator added that the service is aimed, in particular, at users who want to buy necessary goods without waiting for their orders to accumulate in order to qualify for free shipping.
“However, studies show that it is the ‘Z-generation’ that expects instant gratification of their immediate desires. And they don’t want to wait until their shopping cart is full to get free shipping. There’s no need to wait at all,” Smiliansky stated in his message.
JSC “Ukrposhta” is the national postal operator in Ukraine.
As previously reported, Ukrposhta increased its revenue by 4.2% in the first half of this year—to 6.776 billion hryvnias—and posted a net profit of 92 million hryvnias, compared to a net loss of 312 million hryvnias in the first half of last year.
The national postal operator has 7,200 customer service locations, including 2,000 mobile postal branches that serve 21,300 settlements. The average number of employees at the national postal operator for the second quarter of 2026 was 25,800, and the average salary was 20,300 UAH.

This fall, the national postal operator JSC “Ukrposhta” opened 11 new rural branches in the Volyn, Ternopil, Khmelnytskyi, and Rivne regions, while also planning to expand these services to other regions of the country beyond the current border and frontline regions.
“Why there? Well, because the population has grown (we’re talking about villages with 1,200 or more residents), demand for services has increased, we have the support of local communities, and we’ve found good staff,” said Ukrposhta CEO Ihor Smiliansky on the company’s Telegram channel on Thursday.
According to him, a 12th branch will soon open in the Rivne region as well.
Smiliansky explained that if volumes are insufficient, the relevant villages will continue to be served by mobile branches, which operate under any circumstances.
The Ministry of Recovery, Infrastructure, and Transport of Ukraine, in turn, clarified on its Telegram channel that five branches were opened in Volyn Oblast, four in Ternopil Oblast, and one each in Khmelnytskyi and Rivne Oblasts.
It is expected that customers at these branches will be able to send and receive packages, letters, and international mail, as well as make money transfers, pay utility and other bills, and receive pensions and social benefits.

The national postal operator, JSC “Ukrposhta,” is joining the updated government service “Marriage Online 2.0,” through which it will provide international delivery of marriage certificates to Ukrainians in three phases to 48 countries in Europe and around the world, the company announced on Monday.
“In collaboration with the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine and the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, the designated postal operator will provide international delivery of marriage certificates to Ukrainians abroad,” reads the Ukrposhta press release.
It is noted that this project is a pilot initiative for the national postal operator. Consequently, the conditions for further expansion will be determined based on the results of its implementation.
It is expected that the list of destinations, delivery times, and costs will be announced with each launch.
“With the launch of international delivery, the entire process—from submitting an application and conducting a video ceremony to receiving the final document—will be as convenient as possible, regardless of the country where the couple is located,” the company explains.
Ukrposhta added that the “Marriage Online 2.0” service has been operating in Ukraine for two years. In 2026, 40% of all marriages were registered electronically.

The national postal operator, JSC “Ukrposhta,” has launched an integration with Etsy, one of the world’s largest marketplaces, which will allow customers to process international shipments without duplicating data, the company’s CEO, Ihor Smiliansky, announced on Wednesday.
“Starting today, Ukrposhta has launched integration with Etsy, where more than 1.7 million Ukrainian handmade goods, craft items, works of art, and vintage products are sold,” Smiliansky wrote on his Telegram channel.
According to him, Ukrainian sellers will be able to automatically import orders from Etsy, process international shipments without re-entering data, and automatically send tracking numbers once a shipment is created.
Among other features, the integration will allow sellers to print shipping labels directly from their personal account, pay for shipping online, take advantage of cumulative discounts on international shipments, and return shipments free of charge if they are undeliverable.
Users will be able to set up the integration in their Ukrposhta account by syncing it with their Etsy shop, which will then allow new orders to be imported automatically.
“After that, all that’s left is to process and pay for the shipment online, print the shipping label (or provide the tracking number at a post office), and hand the package over to Ukrposhta, which will deliver it to any of the 230 countries and territories around the world,” noted the CEO of the national postal operator.
Separately, Smiliansky clarified that the company is developing a program for VIP exporters, allowing them to send shipments from anywhere in a confidential manner and use a courier service.
As reported in late June, “Ukrposhta” signed an agreement with Etsy, thereby becoming its official partner.
Ukrposhta noted that the national postal operator will handle all customs duty payments (in the U.S. and the EU).
Etsy is an international marketplace specializing in the sale of handmade items, vintage goods, jewelry, and other products.
As previously reported, Ukrposhta posted a net profit of 296.7 million UAH for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of 108 million UAH in the same period of 2025.

“We are already seeing … demand, to the point where we don’t have enough lockers. That’s why we’re currently purchasing additional parcel lockers; we can see that people like this service,” Smilyansky said in a comment to the Interfax-Ukraine news agency.
The domestic parcel locker service currently covers 15 regions of the country, where 376 of the 600 express pickup lockers have been installed. It was noted that during the second quarter, the first 70 Ukrposhta parcel lockers were put into operation in Kyiv as part of a project to expand the self-service network.

The national postal operator, JSC “Ukrposhta,” in partnership with the Ukrainian company “Modern-Expo,” is launching the production and installation of 1,000 new street-side mail kiosks, primarily in Kyiv, Odesa, Lviv, Dnipro, and other major cities across the country, the company’s CEO, Ihor Smilianskyi, announced on the company’s Telegram channel on Thursday.
According to him, these mail kiosks will be equipped with mailboxes that will allow users to both receive packages and send letters.
According to a press release from “Ukrposhta,” the company is inviting homeowners’ associations, property management companies, and representatives of residential complexes to collaborate.
It is anticipated that representatives of homeowners’ associations, property management companies, or residential complexes can submit an application on the national postal operator’s website to have the mail kiosks installed at the appropriate locations.
Ukrposhta explains that the company will prioritize residential complexes in major cities where there is no nearby brick-and-mortar post office, and where it is possible to place a parcel locker near the building’s entrance or in an open area of the residential complex in a location accessible to residents.
Other criteria include the availability of a solid, level surface; the ability to connect to a 220-volt power supply; and reliable mobile network coverage in the relevant area.
It is noted that coffee shops, stores, pharmacies, gas stations, and other businesses are also invited to collaborate.
“We will definitely contact you to inspect the location, agree on the installation site and terms of cooperation. And if everything is in order—we’ll sign a contract and install the parcel locker,” added Smiliansky.
Among other things, he also noted that the company will continue to purchase and install parcel lockers and expand its network through its partners’ parcel lockers.
Separately, the national postal operator announced that the cost of using parcel lockers remains unchanged—starting at 45 UAH. A customer’s package will be stored there for seven calendar days.
Ukrposhta also took the opportunity to reiterate its plans to install 1,000 parcel lockers nationwide, as well as 600 express pickup lockers directly in post offices.
As previously reported, Ukrposhta posted a net profit of 296.7 million UAH for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of 108 million UAH in the same period of 2025.
According to the report, Ukrposhta operates 7,200 customer service locations, including 2,000 mobile postal branches that serve 21,300 settlements.
