SberPay — what is it and how does it work

The SberPay contactless payment service is included in the tools available in the SberBank Online app. This application began its existence in 2008 and has been constantly developing and improving since then. So, in 2020, the possibility of contactless payment appeared, just thanks to the SberPay function.

At its core, SberPay is a direct competitor to similar contactless payment services that are available on smartphones by Google and Apple. The service allows you to make purchases without using physical bank cards at any outlets equipped with terminals, as well as make purchases on the Internet.

How to install SberPay on your phone

It is worth remembering that the device must work on the basis of the Android operating system version 7 and higher, otherwise the application cannot be installed. Smartphones running other operating systems, such as iOS, are not suitable for installing the application.

In addition, NFC technology must be available in the smartphone, that is, the device must have a special module that allows you to transmit signals over short distances. It is this module that provides the possibility of contactless payment.

How to use SberPay on Android OS

To activate the service, first of all, you need to install the SberBankOnline application on the device that will be used for transactions. This can be done in the Google Play service. Before installation, it is important to ensure that the latest version of the application is being installed.

After installing the application, you need to log in using your bank card number. If there is no card, you will have to issue it, as this is a necessary condition.
After authorization, in the main menu, select the “Wallet” section. In this section, you can choose from those cards that are available and can be used for the Sberpay service.

SberPay — how to use

An important feature of contactless payment using the Sberpay service is the double bringing of the device to the payment terminal. In Google Pay, you can pay even without unlocking the screen, while the payment cannot exceed a certain amount.

When using SberPay, this option is blocked. This is done in order to prevent fraudulent withdrawal of funds, which can be carried out by attackers simply by bringing the terminal to the smartphone, even if it is locked and lies in a purse or pocket.

There are two ways to pay with Sberpay:

  • Open the application and bring the device to the terminal. After that, information about the payment will appear on the screen. Next, you will need to unlock the smartphone in the way that is set by default, be it a password or a fingerprint. After that, you need to bring the device to the terminal a second time.
  • Open the SberBankOnline application and select the SberPay Payment section in advance. Unlock the device and bring it to the payment terminal.

Such payment methods may not seem convenient, however, they provide reliable protection against unauthorized debiting of funds and prevent fraudsters.

Answers to frequently asked questions about SberPay

When installing and using the service, questions may arise. Let’s consider the most common of them.

Which cards can be linked to the SberPay service

At this time, only cards issued by Sberbank and working in the Mir payment system can be linked to the service. There are no other possibilities, but the functionality is sufficient to meet all the needs of users-owners of cards of this Russian system.

SberPay writes no cards available

It is necessary to issue and connect cards that are allowed at this time. Cards that are connected to the Mir payment system are supported.

Why SberPay doesn’t work

There are several reasons why a service cannot be activated or a purchase cannot be made. Consider the main ones: • Device modifications
The most common problem in which the SberBankOnline application does not start on the device is various modifications that are installed on the smartphone. This may be a pirated smartphone firmware, a device hacked using third-party applications, and so on. It should be remembered that the firmware of the smartphone should be “clean.”

Another reason why the SberPay service cannot be activated is an overloaded system. In this case, a notification of this type will appear on the screen:

How to connect Sber Pay via Sberbank online on iPhone and MIR card from Sberbank on iPhone. Now it's possible!

In this case, you need to wait a few minutes and try to activate the service again. If the problem is not solved in this way, then you need to uninstall the application and reinstall it. • Slow Internet
There may be problems with the connection, you need to wait or connect to a faster Internet • Old version of the program
It is also important to install the latest version of the application from official resources. This is necessary for the correct operation of the service. • Problems with the Internet or Sber servers
Payment may not go through due to the fact that there is no Internet connection or the connection speed is insufficient for the transaction.
In addition, the service itself may fail. To check if it works, you can make a free call to the support line at 900, or go to the site yourself and view the error report online.

If the contactless payment module is damaged or its software is damaged, then payment using the service is not possible.
Often, users forget to check the card balance before making a purchase, and this leads to the fact that the payment is rejected. In addition, you should re-issue cards in advance, the term of which is coming to an end.
The service not only makes it possible to pay for online purchases, but also makes them easier and safer.

Is it possible to pay for purchases in online stores using the SberPay service

• No need to enter card details. When paying, simply select the “SberPay Payment” item;
• Payment is made without transferring card data to “third-party services”, there is no risk that this information will get to scammers;
• When paying, you need to unlock the device again, which prevents payments that are not authorized by the cardholder.

The contactless payment system is constantly evolving. With ordinary cards that need to be applied to payment terminals instead of being inserted, few people can be surprised. But this is only part of the possibilities of such a contactless service. Sberbank was the first in the Russian Federation to provide all its customers with the opportunity to link cards to the Apple Pay service and use devices running the iOS operating system (smart watches and smartphones) for all kinds of payments.

Advantages and disadvantages of the system

Apple Pay is a special service for making payments using Apple’s mobile technology. It features a simple control system, guaranteed safety and reliability. With it, you can both make purchases in online stores and pay at regular outlets. It is noteworthy that information about customer cards is stored only on the device. It is not sent anywhere and is not stored anywhere except for a smartphone or smart watch. The only thing you need to worry about is the safety of your devices. Apple Pay works with most modern models of Apple technology, but has its own requirements and features that you need to consider.

Requirements

Apple Pay is compatible with iPhone 6 and above and Apple Watch. The main thing is that the Face ID and Touch ID functions are available. The latter is not required in some devices. You can check whether the device supports this service or not on a special page on the Apple website or look in the list below. In addition, the following requirements must be met:

  • The customer is signed in to iCloud.
  • Apple Pay app installed.
  • The client has MasterCard or Visa cards.
  • There is a Sberbank application on the smartphone.
  • The client has an online registration in the Sberbank system.

The last two points may not be fulfilled depending on which option of connecting to the service the person chooses. Also, as it is easy to see, the MIR system is not supported. This must be taken into account at the stage of issuing a means of payment. In addition, it is recommended to use cards of the Standard/Classic type or higher (Gold, Platinum, and so on).

What devices can I use with Apple Pay?

Sberbank, as a card issuer, offers its customers a wide range of payment methods that can work with this service: Mastercard Black Edition, Gold and World Elite. Visa Classic, Gold, Platinum and Mastercard Standard, Gold and

  • Fast and easy way to pay for any goods and services.

MIR card from Sberbank in your iPhone. Now it’s possible!

How to connect Sber Pay via Sberbank online on iPhone and MIR card from Sberbank on iPhone. Now it's possible!

From July 20, 2021, MIR cardholders of the 7 largest banks have the opportunity to add a card to their smartphone. We’ll tell you how to do it

There is no need to talk about the persistence with which the government is trying to popularize bank cards for the national payment system MIR. This can be seen from the huge cash injections that have taken place over the past couple of years. What does it cost to return 20% of the cost of the tour in Russia to the MIR card.

Moreover, the MIR bank card has become a mandatory attribute for those families that receive either a pension or child and other benefits.

MIR has launched many attractive promotions that are really beneficial for cardholders. However, until now there has been a significant drawback. The MIR card could not be added to your smartphone, and therefore, in order to receive cashback or other privileges, the card had to be constantly carried with you.

Yes, there were a lot of instructions on the net on how to add MIR to your smartphone, but they were all a little cunning. In fact, it was not the MIR card that was added to Apple Pay, but a VISA (or MasterCard) card, which was tied to the same account. You could use money, but you could not receive cashback.

From July 20, 2021, the situation has changed for clients of 7 large banks:

  • Sberbank,
  • VTB,
  • Russian Agricultural Bank,
  • Promsvyazbank,
  • Post Bank,
  • Tinkoff Bank,
  • Primsotsbank.

If you are an iPhone owner and your MIR card is issued by one of these seven banks, then today you can easily add your MIR card to Apple Pay.

Unfortunately, there is nothing to please the owners of Android smartphones. It is not yet possible to add a card to Google Pay, but there is a separate Mir Pay system – if the phone supports the NFC standard, the MIR card of many Russian banks can be linked to it, and also to Samsung Pay. And there are also rumors that something may change in the fall of 2021 , and the card can be linked directly to Google Pay.

Next, we will tell you how to add a MIR card from Sberbank to your smartphone (the algorithm will be similar for other banks).

How to add a MIR card from Sberbank to your smartphone

How to connect Sber Pay via Sberbank online on iPhone and MIR card from Sberbank on iPhone. Now it's possible!

Apple Pay is the development of engineers of the famous “apple” company for the production of mobile gadgets. It is designed to replace bank cards. With the help of this technology, it will be possible to easily pay by phone wherever contactless cards are accepted. Apple Pay appeared in Russia relatively recently – since October 6, 2016. Moreover, initially a number of cards were not accepted at all, and only recently some key banks were able to connect almost all cards.

  • What is Apple Pay
  • What devices are supported?
  • Which banks does Apple Pay work with?
  • What type of cards can I use with Apple Pay?
  • How to use Apple Pay?

This is a technology that has been around since September 9, 2014 that allows you to use your smartphone instead of a contactless bank card. With its help, the device can pay in stores, the Internet, applications. For this, the bank card of the owner of the phone will be used.

First of all, this is a very convenient payment method – it is absolutely safe and confidential. No one will know the bank details of the smartphone owner with this service and will not intercept the payment.

It is worth taking a closer look at how Apple Pay works and how to use it in Russia.

How does it work?

Apple Pay works as a contactless payment. Understanding how to pay with it is no more difficult than using a regular card. In order to transfer money to the store for the purchase of goods, you just need to bring the device close to the contactless card reader.

The sensing distance depends on the newness of the terminal. The older it is, the closer you will have to bring the device. The maximum possible distance is 20 centimeters.

After the contact of the phone or watch with the terminal is established, you can confirm the payment by entering the PIN code of the card or a fingerprint on the fingerprint sensor of the gadget.

More details about the technology. Apple Pay is based on NFC (Near Field Communication) and the Secure Element chip. It will store your credit card information. This is controlled using special applications and servers.

In general, Apple Pay operates through the following programs and components:

  • . A repository of necessary information about the owner’s bank cards. It is here that the necessary ones are stored. The chip encrypts them in such a way that it is almost impossible to extract information from it – gaining access to the element’s memory is blocked for all applications;
  • Apple Pay Servers. A server that interacts directly with the Wallet app. It manages bank cards attached to the wallet and is responsible for encoding payment data;
  • . A component that is responsible for starting the authentication process on every attempt to transfer money. Stores in its memory the fingerprint of the owner of the smartphone.

It is important to remember that not every terminal can support Apple Pay. In some cases, they are no longer able to work with new technologies.

You don’t need an Internet connection to pay for purchases. All the necessary data is stored in the smartphone itself. You only need to connect to the network once, the first time you log in to the Wallet app.

How much does it cost to use the technology?

Using the service in the country is absolutely free. Neither Apple nor Russian banks require money for connecting contactless payments and paying for purchases using mobile gadgets. The Wallet application, which is required for linking bank card data, also does not cost a single ruble.

Moreover, there is no commission for payments either.

In fact, when paying via Apple Pay, the terminal accesses the bank card directly. And when paying through the store’s terminal in the currency with which it works, the commission is not paid. Same here.

Why is it convenient?

This payment service allows you to say goodbye to the fear of accidentally losing your bank card. All the necessary data will be immediately in the smartphone, which will greatly simplify life. In addition to the device, you will not need to carry a wallet with a compartment for cards. Of course, it takes up little space, but it is also easier to lose it.

Apple Pay is a guarantor of additional financial security for several reasons:

  • The phone is much harder to lose. The loss of a thin card may not be noticed immediately. And the phone is always at hand. And in the terminal, you can’t accidentally forget it either.
  • each payment will not allow you to simply take and withdraw money from the account. You will need to at least know the password from the phone or be able to attach the fingerprint of the owner of the device.
  • No need to carry a wallet with you. And this saves space and increases convenience.
  • from one to eight cards will eliminate confusion. The necessary data can be viewed immediately in the application on the smartphone.

Contactless cards using the same technology cannot be called as secure. Data from them can still be read if the card itself is stolen. And the lack of authentication by phone password or fingerprint allows you to withdraw 100-200 rubles each (they do not need confirmation with a PIN code).

Unfortunately, the technology is not supported everywhere in Russia. But in a few years, you won’t have to worry about whether the nearest store will need a card or cash.

What devices are supported?

As the name implies, the service is supported by Apple devices. But even in the case of branded products, the scope will differ depending on the generation of technology. You can pay for purchases without restrictions only from the following gadgets:

  • iPhone 5SE;
  • iPhone 6/6 Plus and updated S series;
  • iPhone 7/7 Plus;
  • Apple Watch (paired with iPhone 5/5 and older).

All other devices, starting from the iPhone 5, can also act as a means of payment. But only on the Internet and the Apple Store.

Analogues for other devices

However, if the original Apple Pay is available only to the products of this company, then Android smartphone manufacturers have created a similar technology. Today there are several analogues:

  • Samsung Pay. In addition to the standard use, NFC supports MST technology, which simulates the magnetic tape of the card and therefore makes it possible to pay at any terminal). Installed exclusively on Samsung gadgets;
  • Android Pay. Works only via NFC with all smartphones on Android OS.

Analogues work almost the same as Apple Pay. The degree of protection and safety of use do not differ from the “apple” version. Therefore, owners of smartphones on Android are not infringed on their rights.

Which banks does Apple Pay work with?

In order for the new contactless payment technology to come to Russia, leading banks had to conclude contracts directly with Apple. It is noteworthy that on the day the system was launched in the country, Apple Pay received support only from Sberbank. He was also able to build the best work with the payment service, being the first to support almost all types of cards, except for American Express.

Today you can use Apple Pay if you have a card from the following banking institutions:

Naturally, this list will be supplemented in the future. Many banks are planning or are already in the process of entering into an agreement with Apple to be able to connect their cards to their servers.

In addition, you can additionally connect Yandex. Money” and QIWI, as well as the Internet Banking card of the mobile operator “Beeline” in order to be able to pay with them in stores and on the Internet.

What type of cards can I use with Apple Pay?

It is important to remember that each Russian bank may have its own set of supported cards. Therefore, the question must be clarified directly in each institution separately.

Initially, Apple Pay supports cards of leading payment systems:

  • American Express;
  • MasterCard;
  • Visa.

They also function in Russia. But not all brands and types of cards inside them support banks. Mostly they use MasterCard and Visa cards. But instant ones, such as Maestro, are not supported. And not everyone works with Visa Electron.

Apple Pay works great with both debit and credit cards. It is enough that they have money (or a credit limit) to be able to pay for the purchase.

How do I use Apple Pay?

To be able to use the new way to pay for purchases in stores and online, you must first understand how to connect Apple Pay. To do this, you need to configure the existing gadget and connect a bank card to it.

How to connect/disconnect the card from the system?

To get started, you will need to set up the Wallet application on the gadget you are using. It is designed to store and use bank card data, discount and bonus cards, and other information.

Authorization will be required at the first launch. To do this, you need to remember your Apple ID password.

Immediately after authorization, the user will be prompted to start using Apple Pay. In the corresponding window there will be text, and below it there will be a button “Add a payment card”, which you must click on.

Now there are two ways to add the card with which the smartphone owner intends to use Apple Pay to the Wallet database:

  • Take a picture of her. To add a card, you need a camera, so if your smartphone has a protective case that covers it, you will have to remove it.
  • Enter all data manually.

After entering the information in one way or another, you will need to confirm the operation. As a rule, you receive an SMS message with a special password. This password must be entered into the Wallet app to activate the linked card. If everything went well, there are no errors in the data – the phone will report success. After that, the card can be safely used.

By the way, Sberbank allows you to use a simpler method of linking plastic to Wallet. For this you need:

  • Connect Mobile Bank to the card;
  • Tap on the plus sign in the upper right corner;
  • Enter the security code of the card (if it is associated with iTunes).

After this simple procedure, the card is linked. You don’t need to take a picture of it or type in the data yourself. Sberbank and Wallet will independently exchange information.

You can also use Sberbank Online:

  • Open the page of the bank card you want to connect in it;
  • Tap on “Connect Apple Pay” (instead of Apple Pay, iPhone / Apple Watch can be written).
  • Follow the instructions provided by the bank.

VTB 24 Bank (and others) does not provide other connection methods. Therefore, you will have to take a picture of the card or enter information from it manually.

Where to pay with Apple Pay

The developers have provided the following places where you can pay for goods and services:

  • Shops with contactless payment terminals;
  • Purchase of goods and services on websites and online stores;
  • Payment for services in programs (for example, the purchase of game items);
  • Using a bonus card (it is added in the same way as any other).

In fact, the system covers all possible places, except for transport, where money may be needed. This eliminates the need to carry one (or several) bank cards and cash with you.

It is important to remember that when paying online or when buying something in the application, you will need to find a payment method through Apple Pay. Otherwise, this online store or program does not support this technology.

What about security?

Many users doubt whether it is safe to use the contactless payment service at all, especially with a smartphone. These doubts are caused by distrust of new opportunities. There is always a fear that at some point during the transfer of data, information about the card or the money itself will be stolen. But you don’t have to be afraid of it. Now we will debunk a few myths and explain why they are not true:

  • Card data will not be transferred to third parties. They are encrypted and stored in an inaccessible sector of the device’s memory. Only the owner of the device can view them.
  • The PIN cannot be stolen. Because he is not needed. For payment, only the fingerprint of the owner of the phone is used.
  • If you lose your smartphone or watch, your card data will not be in danger. First, to use it with the Apple Watch, you need to set a password on the Wallet app that no one will know. Secondly, authentication from a smartphone (as already mentioned) passes only through a fingerprint.
  • Apple does not receive any data from the Wallet app. Information is not transmitted to the Internet and is not sent to the company’s servers. It is encrypted immediately after entering and is stored only in this form.
  • Viruses and any applications in general cannot get inside the Wallet. As already mentioned, data is stored in an isolated memory sector. It’s impossible to get to them.

That’s why Apple Pay is one of the safest payment methods. There is no need to worry about money, because it will be protected not only by passwords and the attentiveness of the owner, but also by modern technologies.

Apple Pay reviews

More than half a year after the launch of the system in Russia, users managed to draw the following conclusions:

  • Apple Pay is convenient. People note that they no longer have to carry cards with them or be afraid for the safety of money.
  • Contactless payment is faster than with a regular card and cash. It is enough just to bring it to the terminal and hold your finger on the fingerprint sensor.
