How to pay for a purchase with a QR code in Vietnam via Sberbank?

Customers pay for purchases in Vietnam Sberbank They can use a QR code—the service isn't available at all retail outlets, but the bank's geographic reach is constantly expanding. The transaction is carried out as follows:

The client opens the Sber app and scans the QR code on the terminal. The bank automatically converts rubles to Vietnamese dong. The debit amount is displayed on the smartphone screen. The client confirms the payment.

This option will be useful for Russian tourists, as Vietnam has become a favorite among domestic travelers this year – from January to September, over 430,000 citizens visited the country's resorts, which is almost the second highest number compared to the same period last year.

In which other countries do QR code payments work for Russians?

VTB Bank previously introduced QR code payment in Vietnam. The transaction process is similar, conversion is automatic, there are no transaction fees, and the per-payment limit is up to 350,000 rubles. VTB also provides this service to Russian citizens in other countries, including Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkey, and its presence is constantly expanding.

"The problem with paying abroad is gradually being resolved – friendly countries and destinations popular with Russian tourists are being prioritized," the expert notes.

Russian banks are also actively implementing QR code payments via the Fast Payment System (FPS) in other countries, including the UAE and the Maldives. However, the service is available in a limited number of stores, primarily in popular tourist areas. The launch requires the consent of not only the retailers but also local banks, which are reluctant to sign contracts with Russians due to the risk of secondary sanctions from the US and Europe.

Branch of the Russian Ethnographic Museum in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk.

Construction and installation work has been completed at the new branch of the Russian Ethnographic Museum in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, and permission to open the facility has been received. Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin announced this.

"Systematic work to develop cultural facilities continues in Russia's regions, aimed at preserving historical heritage and increasing public access to cultural treasures. Particular attention is being paid to creating museum spaces that meet modern standards. A striking example of this work is the opening of the new building for the Russian Ethnographic Museum in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, with a total area of over 3,500 square meters. It was constructed by the company "Unified Customer in Construction." All work was completed on schedule. The new museum complex will become a multifunctional center for the storage, restoration, and digitization of collections. It will also include modern public spaces for exhibitions, creative and educational events," said Marat Khusnullin.

The museum's exhibition will feature materials revealing Russia's role in preserving the cultures and languages of indigenous peoples. The new building is also planned to house unique artifacts discovered at various times on Sakhalin and nearby islands, reflecting the traditions and everyday life of the region's population from the late 9th to early 20th centuries.

"The project is being implemented by the Unified Customer subsidiaries and contractors as part of the national project 'Infrastructure for Life' and the register of capital construction projects, part of the comprehensive state program 'Construction,' overseen by the Russian Ministry of Construction. The brown façade blends seamlessly with the architecture of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. The building is adorned with the museum's logo and name, visible to city residents from afar. The total area of the installed façade is approximately 1,900 square meters," said Deputy Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Yuri Gordeyev.

The museum building houses a lecture hall, a multimedia cinema, food court areas, and a souvenir shop.

"The area surrounding the new museum building has been comprehensively landscaped. The builders installed street lighting, laid the lawn, laid sidewalks, and installed hardscape elements. This modern facility, built at the intersection of Yesenina and Komsomolskaya Streets, is already recognizable in the city," noted Karen Oganesyan, General Director of the Unified Customer Production Company.

The museum's opening and first exhibition are scheduled for September 2026.

"The completion of the building on Sakhalin is undoubtedly a significant event in the history of the Russian Ethnographic Museum, which will allow us to enter a qualitatively new phase of our work. Our efforts will now be focused on creating a modern museum space. During the Year of Unity of the Peoples of Russia, it will become an important platform for understanding the country's cultural diversity in the unique Sakhalin context. Our goal is to create a sought-after cultural center in the region, significant both for the local community and for the development of tourism," said Yulia Kupina, Director of the Russian Ethnographic Museum.

The number of cashless payments for goods and services increased by 13% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period last year. People are choosing different payment methods, and banks are expanding their fleet of payment terminals across the country.

The number of daily non-cash payments for goods and services from July to September totaled 243 million, representing over 2,800 transactions every second. However, the share of card payments is growing at a slower rate than other non-cash payment methods. For example, people paid for 14% of purchases using biometrics, QR codes, and other non-card payment methods, an increase of 4.5 percentage points compared to the previous year.

Banks, in turn, expanded their network of terminals. Their number at retailers across the country increased by more than 500,000 as of October 1, 2025, compared to the same date last year.
