The main task of each state is the smooth and confident advancement of all spheres of activity. In the first place is the progress of financial and economic stability in the state. The Mir card is rapidly spreading among Russian citizens. It is assumed that it will be able to compete with foreign payment systems.

How the Mir card was created

In the distant nineties of the last century, the country's leadership had the idea to create its own payment organization. This was necessary in order for the state to have a guarantee of economic independence and security. But such plans were realized only in July 2014.

Sanctions from the United States served as a breakthrough for this. At that time, the Russian Federation did not have a state payment system - international Visa and MasterCard were used for these purposes. These payment cards were engaged in supporting the Russian economic market. But after the application of sanctions, some banks were deprived of the opportunity to use the presented systems. Thus, the accounts of individuals and large firms were blocked.

For the advantages of the Russian financial system, a plan was applied in a very short time to implement a personal system that guarantees protection from foreign financial firms:

• On July 7, 2014, NSPK JSC (National Payment Card System) was opened, which was developed on the basis of the Central Bank - it had an absolute stake.
• On May 5, 2017, the Federal Law appeared, which allows attracting new investors and expanding the number of founders of the joint stock community.
• NSPK took great efforts to manufacture the state payment system "Mir".

Opportunities for money transactions

All information is processed by the Mir payment organization on the territory of the Russian Federation. For this purpose, a domestic operating apparatus is used. The pressing center is located inside the Russian Federation, which guarantees the strength of the financial structure as a whole.

Today, 357 banks work with cards (including those that serve them in their terminals). Among these banks is VTB.

With the support of the Mir card from VTB 24, you can make all monetary transactions that were previously available only with MasterCard and Visa cards:
