How to pay by QR?

QR code payments are widely accepted in Russia. They work in seconds, instead of paying with cash.

How it works at the till

  1. The cashier shows you a QR code, or the counter has one on a sticker.
  2. You scan it in the PayInRussia app and check the amount.
  3. You confirm, and the shop is paid in seconds.

It is what people in Russia use every day — supermarkets, cafés, taxis, delivery, the metro, and most online checkouts.

Booking online

Here is one booking process paid using PayInRussia.
