Russia is still a country of cash, but the tendency to increase the use of bank cards for making payments is already obvious. Many of our compatriots still do not fully trust the "plastic", but those who have already appreciated all the advantages of non-cash payments, not only gladly use cards for off-line and on-line payments.
Plastic VS Cash
Abroad to the use of plastic for a long time accustomed. According to the British Payments Council, after 5 years, the amount of cash used will be halved. The forecast, of course, is impressive, but for Europe today this situation does not seem fantastic.
As for our country:
Of the total volume of operations with bank cards in 2009, only 11.2% (or 10.6 billion dollars) accounted for the operations of paying for goods and services with cards, and the remaining 88.8% (or 83.6 billion dollars) accounted for ATM cash withdrawal operations. LinkThe process is slow, but it is going. This is confirmed by the active
work in this direction at the state level: obviously, the desire to convince people to reduce the use of cash, because it is convenient for all participants in the payment process.
QIWI Wallet users have long wanted to be able to pay for services with bank cards ...

And now there is such an opportunity
It has become possible to tie your card to QIWI Wallet and pay for the products and services of the many providers available in our payment system.
You can register the card on the website or in the iPhone App. You can pay by card on the QIWI Wallet website or in Mobile applications. This option
while working on a group of risk-free providers with some restrictions:
one card can pay no more than 3,000 rubles a day and no more than 9,000 rubles a month. Please note: QIWI Wallet itself cannot be replenished with a credit card.
Commission, alas ...
So far, for all the cards, the commission is –3% (
but also replenish the QIWI Wallet through the terminal with up to 500 rubles - the same 3%). And to go somewhere often just too lazy - especially in this heat :)
Cards that can be linked to QIWI Wallet: VISA (Visa Classic, Visa Gold, Visa Platinum) and MasterCard (MasterCard Mass, MasterCard Gold, MasterCard Platinum).
Will the commission be reduced or absent altogether? Yes, the process is already underway. Soon we will try to please you with the first news!

Pay attention : you can link not one, but several cards and choose which one and when and for what to pay.
Quotation of the head of the Security Service of the company, which seemed to me interesting:

There is a dynamic, but we will not give specific amounts yet.

Thank.
