Armenia has started distributing child benefit payments for October 2026, including financial assistance for children under the age of two and monthly benefits for third and subsequent children under six.
The announcement was made by Armenia’s Unified Social Service (USS), which also reminded beneficiaries about the cashback program available for eligible cashless purchases.
Which Child Benefits Are Being Paid?
The payment process covers two categories of state assistance:
Childcare benefits for eligible families raising children under two years old.
Benefits for third and subsequent children until they reach the age of six.
These payments are part of Armenia’s social support programs designed to provide financial assistance to families with young children.
How Does the 20% Cashback Program Work?
According to the Unified Social Service, eligible beneficiaries can receive 20% cashback on qualifying cashless transactions, up to a maximum of 10,000 AMD.
The cashback is credited automatically when eligible purchases are made using a bank card at retail outlets and service establishments operating in Armenia.
This means beneficiaries do not need to submit a separate application for each qualifying transaction.
The maximum cashback amount is subject to the program’s established conditions.
The Unified Social Service advises beneficiaries to use cashless payments where eligible to take advantage of the additional financial support.
