Yandex. Money: protection of transfer by protection code

  • From RSS
Each Yandex.Money user can now protect their transfer with a protection code , without which the payee will not be able to use the transferred funds.

A protection code is a random four-digit number. It can be communicated to the recipient by e-mail, send via SMS or simply dictate by phone.

The recipient will see the protected transfer right away, but he will be able to use the money only after entering the protection code. If the recipient has entered the wrong code three times in a row, or the payment has expired, the funds are returned to the sender. The validity period of the payment is set by the sender and can be from a day to a year.

The protection code can be used, for example, if you doubt that you have entered the beneficiary's account number correctly. Or if it’s important for you to demonstrate that you are ready to transfer money subsequently.

Using the protection code is free for both the sender and the payee. The minimum amount protected by the protection code is 30 rubles.
