Cards issued by foreign banks do not work in Russia. As soon as you enter the country, the convenience you are used to is no longer available: you can no longer easily pay for your coffee, request a cab, or purchase a ticket to a museum. You need to search for a place to exchange money, keep cash on hand, and avoid unplanned spending.

The answer to this problem is PayInRussia. This payment service helps visitors from other countries to pay for purchases and services in Russia using their smartphones. You do not have to carry cash or need to go to a bank.

What can be paid for?

• 
  
• taxi trips and delivery services;
  
• accommodation and flight tickets;
  
• cafes and dining establishments;
  
• stores and shopping malls;
  
• museum and event tickets;
  
• orders from Russian online stores and marketplaces.
  

How does the service work?

Register before your trip while you are still in your home country. To do this:

• 
  
• upload a scan of your passport;
  
• capture a selfie;
  
• complete a brief identity check. Your information is processed automatically, and SMS verification through a Russian phone number is not required.
  

Top up your balance using a bank card issued outside Russia or a supported international payment service prior to your arrival in Russia.

Pay for your purchases:

• 
  
• Offline: use your phone to scan the QR code at the checkout. An internet connection via a Wi-Fi or cellular network must be available.
  
• Online: pay for orders in e-commerce stores and book hotels and tickets straight from the mobile app.
  

Why is the service so useful?

PayInRussia has been designed with overseas visitors in mind:

• 
  
• you do not need to be a resident of the Russian Federation;
  
• you do not need to open a bank account in Russia;
  
• you are not required to go to bank offices or currency exchange bureaus;
  
• you can sign up and fund your balance in advance of your journey;
  
• you can make convenient payments with your mobile phone;
  
• the service is suitable for both short and extended trips.
  

How can you start using the service? It only takes three straightforward steps:

1. 
   
2. Install the application on your mobile phone.
   
3. Fund your account using a bank card issued abroad.
   
4. Make payments for goods and services in Russia: start the mobile app, select the QR code symbol, and use your camera to scan the code at the payment terminal. The money will be debited from your account right away.
