Bank card
The most common method is paying with a Visa, Mastercard or MIR bank card on the airline's or agency's website. The money is charged immediately. For international flights you can also use foreign cards.
E-wallets and SBP
Many sellers accept payment via YuMoney and also via the Faster Payments System (SBP) by QR code. SBP often has lower fees and is convenient when your card is at hand.
Instalments and credit
Some agencies and airlines offer instalment or credit payment. Before applying, study the terms carefully: the total overpayment, the term and early-repayment penalties.
Tip
Before paying, check the final amount: it may include fees, baggage charges or seat selection. Make sure the currency and exchange rate are correct.
