Alipay via Sberbank: Alipay for Russian Users

Previously, Sberbank was integrated with Alipay, allowing users to make payments via Alipay directly from Sberbank cards. However, due to regulatory changes, international sanctions, and political factors, this option has become limited. Previously, users could: link a Sberbank card to Alipay, pay for purchases in Chinese online stores (e.g., AliExpress) in RUB, use Alipay QR codes in China for payments. Current Restrictions on International Transactions: in 2022, Visa and Mastercard ceased operations in Russia, making direct transfers more difficult, regulatory changes tightened requirements for Russian users on Chinese payment platforms, some payment routes between Russia and China were closed. Today, users can top up Alipay via BTCChange24, which offers multiple payment methods, including Sberbank transfers.
