📋 Tender Overview
Owners of iPhones can once again make contactless payments with their phones, as Sber rolls out its Whoosh technology, which operates on Bluetooth Low Energy. It is available only via the new version of SberBank Online (16.13), called Assets Online. Download the new app from the App Store via the link from Sbers official channels now or install it later at bank branches. Payments require no special settings. Simply install the new version of SberBank Online in advance and allow the app to use Bluetooth. The technology is available on Sbers new biometric terminals without buttons. Throughout the year, Sber has carried out extensive modifications and updates to its fleet of terminals to enable payments using the Whoosh technology. When the terminal screen shows your payment size, you will need to launch the SberBank Online app, hold your smartphone near the terminal, and confirm the payment. Payment works from any screen of the app, including the login screen. You dont need to take the smartphone very close since Whoosh works at a distance. This technology comes with many advantages. For instance, you can pay from any account, regardless of the type of bank card (Mir, Visa, Mastercard), and even when your device has no internet connection. You will also receive Spasibo reward points for purchases. The technology complies with all security standards used in the payment industry. Already in demand, the Whoosh technology can be implemented by any bank. It is currently being tested by T-Bank and Alfa-Bank. After the pilot, their clients will be able to make payments through 1.2 mn+ Sber terminals. The new version of SberBank Online iOS features other improvements, too. iPhone users now have sections such as Home, Cars, Loans, and Life, which were previously available only on Android smartphones. Additionally, users can customize the app as they wish: rearrange sections, add new ones, or hide irrelevant ones, ensuring that only the necessary products and services remain in focus. To download the app from App Store, only use the links from Sbers official channels.
