Mir UnionPay co-badged cards from Russia will help you withdraw money abroad: in which banks and how to apply, websites, banks phone numbers

As we previously reported, from March 10, 2022, Visa and Mastercard cards issued in Russia will no longer work outside of Russia, and Visa and Mastercard issued abroad will not be able to pay within Russia.

 

After that, the National Payment Card System of Russia (NSPK) announced that to pay for purchases and withdraw cash abroad, you can issue a Mir-UnionPay co-badged card, which will be accepted both in Russia and in 180 countries abroad that support work with UnionPay . Many large Russian banks have already announced that they are considering the possibility of issuing a Mir-UnionPay co-badged card.

 

Although such well-known banks have already announced that they will issue co-badged (owned simultaneously by two payment systems) UnionPay Mir cards in the very near future, but so far in Russia only 2 banks issue co-badged debit cards - Rosselkhozbank and RRDB. The account in the first case is opened in rubles, dollars or euros, in the second - in rubles. When using such cards, all transactions within Russia are carried out through MIR, outside Russia - through UnionPay.

 

On March 6, 2022, Sberbank announced that it was considering the possibility of issuing a Mir-UnionPay co-badged card. The fact that they are working on the launch of cards on UnionPay was also told in Alfa-Bank. Tinkoff Bank, Raiffeisenbank, Rosbank and Moscow Credit Bank are planning to promptly resolve the issue of issuing Mir-UnionPay co-badged cards.

 

In order to issue co-badged Mir UnionPay cards, you need to apply to the offices of the above banks with a valid passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation. For example, this is the “Classic” of the All-Russian Bank for the Development of Regions, “Co-badged “Mir”—UnionPay of the Russian Agricultural Bank, “UnionPay—“Mir” of Solidarity Bank.

 

When you are abroad, it is advisable to warn the cashier about your preferred system in order to avoid additional conversion losses. The logos of both payment systems are applied on the front side, the privileges of both are available to the holders.

 

The account in the first case is opened in rubles, dollars or euros, in the second - in rubles. When using such plastic, transactions within the country are carried out through the MIR, outside the Russian Federation - through UnionPay (Chinese system)

For premium cards (Diamond category), the account is opened exclusively in yuan.

Discounts in duty-free cards for travelers on an ongoing basis.

Cards issued in China have a six-digit PIN code, issued in the Russian Federation - a four-digit one. When using Russian plastic in China, 2 additional zeros are added when dialing PIN. When using Chinese plastic in other countries where a 4-digit PIN is accepted, you must follow the instructions of the cashier.

Tax Refund works (VAT refund when traveling abroad in partner stores). For Russian tourists, the most interesting are Turkey, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Belarus, UAE, Morocco, Cyprus, etc. The procedure in each country is different, it is advisable to clarify this point in advance.
