Well, well, well! On the one hand, what happened was to happen long ago. On the other hand, the world is not to blame for the fact that he was left alone. Even for a while.

Hello! You are reading the channel of Urma Live!

I think already many owners of Apple's wonderful devices know that now the Apple Pay service does not support the world map. It is sad, given that the world's maps, in my opinion, were the only "ray of light", the only real reason to acquire the company's devices. At a minimum, I'm talking about the iPhone.

Agree, almost every IPhone owner (even I) was tied at least one bank card to the Apple Pay service. And today to tie a bank card issued by Russian banks is almost impossible, given the fact that most uses Visa and MasterCard cards.

Of course, not only Apple disabled payment with a smartphone. But only on its devices this feature is completely absent. I'm not talking about UnionPay and JCB (which can also disappear from all pay-systems). Most likely, they still work in the Apple Pay system from unauthorized banks. However, according to my observations, these payment systems are not the most common (with the exception of UnionPay, which recently have become more actively distributed in the format of cobage cards world - Unoinpay), so we will temporarily forget about them. Of course, let's not forget that there are other pay services that are also gradually ceased to work.

What do we end up? We can now only enjoy the "alive" plastic. Or still not?

There are some more pays. Everyone has their own limitations. We are not afraid of restrictions? :)

What is this beast? Probably, many guessed that this is a Sberbank service that allows you to pay for purchases on the Internet using cards of any payment systems. Sberpay has two limitations:

It can be said about one restriction (which will be third!). Apple devices users can pay for purchases using Sberpay exclusively on online store websites! At the same time, Android-smartphone users with the NFC sensor will be able to pay as before, simply by bringing their gadget to the payment terminal (just do not forget, it is relevant if you are a client of a savage!).

2) Nail program capable of combining many banks in its payment service! And this is Mir Pay!

Yes, yes, you did not hear! Mir Pay Now our friend for a long time (most likely).

Of the minuses, at the moment, I can allocate two:

If everything is extremely clear with the first item (well, if not, briefly, NFC is a chip, which allows you to read the data at a short distance; similar chips are used in key cards (such often in hotels), then with the second point of disorder, in my opinion Since the world's official website is the possibility of registering with the phone number. What is an additional authorization via Google Account? I do not understand.

Now let's look at the plus, which, in my opinion, overlaps the minuses. MIR PAY can connect several cards of different banks. The main thing is that they are all connected to the world's payment system.

Yes, for someone, everything is higher than the written minus, at least due to the fact that this person has no map of the world of payment system. However, the use of cards of other payment systems on the territory of our country is absolutely meaningless, as all the activities of the main players of the market are suspended for an unknown period, and the work of cards outside the country is also impossible.

What do we have in a dry residue?

1. Maps of the payment system The world will be more and more to enter our life, which, on the one hand, is bad, because For the territory of our country, few people accept this card, but, on the other hand, well, because the possibilities of the card are expanding, giving us with you, ordinary users, various privileges from use (Kesbak for passing, shopping, travel, etc. ).

2. Now make payments using a smartphone is possible only with the MIR Pay payment service available solely on Android smartphones equipped with a NFC chip.

3. About the limited circle of countries where Maps work, I think, you can still not worry, as banks have already developed a plan B in the form of cobage cards world - UnionPay, which will allow payment not only in the territory of the Russian Federation, but also Outside its limits (UnionPay supports about 180 countries).

At the end I want to say the following: If you fundamentally use a smartphone instead of a physical card for you, then you just need to go to the Android-smartphone (in the case of using Apple iPhone, for example, like me). And then think that choose: either you are using the Mir Pay payment service (remind you that it works exclusively with the world cards), or wait for alternative services that, most likely be sure to appear. I think the NSPK (national payment card system) will not leave us in trouble!
