The Sberpay family includes the Pay QR contactless phone payment service, which is now called Sberpay QR Payment, and the Pay-with-a-glance biometric system, the bank’s press service reports.

One in three Sber clients has already used SberPay, the innovative payment method. SberPay QR Payments facilitates mobile payments at 500,000 outlets across the country, and their number continues to grow rapidly. To make a payment, you need to scan the QR code at the checkout and confirm it in the SberBank Online mobile app. The service works even on smartphones without NFC.

Pay-with-a-glance facilitates purchases without cards, but also without smartphones. It is enough to set up this payment method in SberBank Online in advance and just look into the camera to make a purchase. Makeup or a photograph cannot trick the algorithm and it is just as fast as a standard bankcard payment.

The Sberpay payment service also includes online payment in online stores, for which you do not need to enter bank card details and wait for SMS confirmation. At the same time, complete security of the purchase is ensured, since the card data remains inside the bank and is not transferred to other participants in the settlements. Using Sberpay is free for all Sberbank Online users and does not require the installation of additional applications on a smartphone.

“We keep developing SberPay, a payment service system launched in May 2020. It is a convenient, reliable, and secure alternative to cash payments, which is used by millions of Russians. It currently includes various online and offline payment options available to every SberBank Online user. Under the hood, SberPay has the latest domestic tech solutions for almost instant payments,” said Dmitry Malykh, director of Acquiring, Sberbank.
