April news
In early April, significant changes occurred in the payment system.
The first and most important change: the faceless Personal Account has turned into a QIWI Wallet , the address of the site has changed, now it is: https://w.qiwi.ru/
Other significant changes have occurred. I will dwell a little more on some of them.
All you need to know to transfer is to know the recipient’s Russian mobile number:

Transfers are made through a bank, since only banks can send money on behalf of one individual to another individual. Violation of this principle threatens with charges of illegal banking and serious consequences - up to the closure of the enterprise.
The statistics accumulated over the week already allow us to draw some conclusions. The following categories of our users are actively using this function:
Yes, and 1% percent can be avoided , just replenish the QIWI recipient's wallet in the QIWI terminal - in the E-Commerce section: There were

transfers between users before, but due to the fact that the legal basis for this form of activity was not determined, this function It did not advance and was not announced in any way, and as a result, few people used it - although they were absolutely free!
Launched mobile site QIWI Wallet: m.qiwi.ru . The functionality of the site is limited to 2 most necessary things:

The Applications have everything: the ability to withdraw money to banks, money transfers and transfers between users are available, payment from a Beeline personal account.
QIWI Wallet survived the turbulent start of April. If in early April I saw a lot of broken terminals, now everything works. Who switched to work with the bank, someone registered with the tax and fiscalized.
If in the first week of April we observed a 10-15% drop in turnover compared with March, now everything has returned to normal.
True, in some cities there are much fewer QIWI terminals, for example, in Kazan. I would be very happy if you tell me what the situation is in your city.
Another news, in the terminals where the QIWI Wallet was disabled - everything worked. Check it out .
It will take place next week. Participation in the event was paid. Did it affect your decision to come there or not?
