Miscellaneous / / June 15, 2022
From October 25, banks that work with Mir cards will have access to a new way to pay for purchases - using a QR code on a client's mobile device. About it write "News".
This method will only work after the cardholder is authenticated, but the card itself is not required for the operation. QR codes can be generated in the bank's mobile application and in Mir Pay.
Russian Standard Bank is involved in the development of this payment method. It is also planned to introduce it by Otkritie.
This method will be more convenient than the current one in the fast payment system (FPS). It is assumed that the buyer will only open the bank's mobile application and show the QR code to the seller. Now users need to perform an order of magnitude more actions: turn on the smartphone camera, scan a QR code, open a mobile application and confirm the payment.
