Russian customers

[navyraiser]

Hey guys,

I want to include Russian customers into my business. With all the sanctions going on, how are Russians paying online? I've read visa and Mastercard stopped their service in Russia and most people use MIR cards now? Does anyone has experience with that?

Which website are you operating your business on?

There might be a payment gateway that accepts Mir cards, but Mir is not widely used internationally. Moreover, the Russian market isn’t particularly large in terms of spending power.

I still work with many Russian clients and they pay via USDT and BTC

Two or three heavy spenders might be all you need, not the whole market in general, and that can come from any demographic. Never dismiss a market based on general consensus of its demographics.

To Op, a lot of them use crypto

My own website

Russia has around 3% of the world's millionaires. Where I live right now, there are more Russian buying expensive houses and driving around in their G wagon than any other nationality.

I wanted to avoid crypto, I know that most people have MIR cards now or direct bank transfers. But how would I go on about that as someone not living in Russia.

Cryptos and Payonner will work. Almost all of my cilent will transfer fund through that platform

 

[RichMedusa]

Local credit cards, crypto and Webmoney are some of the most relevant payment methods for Russian customers

I created a list of payment processors here: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/f...s-high-risk-businesses-foreign-users.1691155/

Take a look, maybe some of them maybe useful for you. Maybe chinese payment processors are more appropriate for your case

for my services, they always pay with crypto.
u can simply implement https://nowpayments.io/ as payment processor.

Crypto payment gateway will be the best.
Because, i receive many payments from Russian people via Crypto (USDT, BTC, LTC, DOGE)

For anyone interested, I will try freekassa.com they support russian cards and apparently foreign cards, their rates are not tooooo bad either.

you can try P2P processing platforms. They are used by casinos/betting sites, but they can also be used for your purposes. They will accept payment in rubles, and send you USDT. For example telegapay.com . You can write to DM and I will advise you.

I use them already now, highly recommended. Very good customer support
