Apple's plans to launch its payment service in Russia were reported back in 2014. Now users have received official confirmation that Apple Pay will be launched in Russia before the end of 2016, but for now it will only work with MasterCard.
Currently, the Russian division of Apple Rus LLC is negotiating georgia mobile phone number list with a number of Russian banks, including Alfa Bank, Raiffeisenbank, Sberbank, VTB24 and Tinkoff Bank.
Bank cards will now be stored next to rewards cards in the Wallet app. In addition, store cards will now be able to use NFC and transmit rewards and customer information through a payment terminal that supports Apple Pay.
There are rumors online about Russian retailers not being ready to accept payments via Apple Pay, but we don't believe them. Let us remind you that last year we tested Apple Pay with a Bank of America card at McDonalds and the Karusel hypermarket - everything worked out for us then.
