Greetings, dear readers of the Rabota-Vo.ru blog! We all sometimes send or receive (which is much nicer) money transfers. Doing this via mail is not very profitable due to high interest and unreasonably extended deadlines. But there are alternative payment services that offer Better conditions. The undisputed leader among them is contact system.
Created in 1999, it became the basis for the formation of a new segment financial market. The developers of the system initially focused on ordinary users and offered them a number of relatively inexpensive and affordable services. Now through Contact you can:
Implement fast money transfer;
Pay for some services or purchased goods;
Make any payment according to the most simplified scheme.
Transfers through the Contact system are convenient for ordinary people and organizations. It allows you to transfer funds to friends, make purchases, pay for the work of virtual employees (after all, work from home remotely used by many companies). All transactions are carried out quickly, the commission for services is minimal.
Despite the great opportunities, the Contact scheme is really simple. Figure out, how to use contact, everyone can. The main functions of the system that allow you to transfer and receive funds are described below.
The main function of the Contact system is a quick and convenient transfer of funds, which is carried out according to a simple scheme. In particular, an ordinary user (individual) does not even need to open an account in order to transfer money to another person or organization (legal entity). The operation can be performed in different ways.
describe everything available options I won’t, on the website of the Contact system everything is stated in great detail. I will tell you briefly about some ways to transfer funds, in particular, about online transfers Contact.
To make a transfer from a point, you just need to come there with money and a passport. The operator will do the rest. After sending money, you need to contact the recipient, inform the amount and transaction number.
In the same way, you can transfer funds to the account using any details, which is convenient if the recipient is an organization. You can do this in any way described here.
Contact allows you to send money from your mobile account. At the same time, the one to whom they are intended can receive cash at any point of this payment system.
Contact cooperates with several companies that have their own payment terminals. Through them, you can also send transfers, however, the amount should not exceed 15 thousand rubles.
Through Contact are carried out online money transfers from one card to another. Everything is done through special service, where you must specify the numbers of both cards and the amount.
Separately, I want to talk about the Contact 24 service, which provides users with an analogue of an electronic wallet. Only real rubles are stored there. To carry out all types of transfers available in the Contact system, you need to go to the website of this service and register.
The Contact system works quickly, transfers are transferred quickly. The commission is paid by the person who sent the funds. To receive money, it is enough:
Find out from the sender his full name, amount, unique number and currency of the transfer;
Come to the operating point of the Contact network with a passport;
Get cash.
The Contact system offers a simplified payment scheme for purchased goods and various services. The user can pay for the Internet or cellular communications, insurance or utilities, replenish an account in another electronic payment system, repay a loan. It can be done:
At any point of the Contact network;
Through special online service Contact24.
About, how to transfer money via contact, I wrote in detail above, everything is clear there. If it is difficult for a person to pay online, he can always take the required amount and passport, come to the operating point of the system and transfer funds.
Instant non-purpose loans - the most popular loan product, they are issued by many banks, specialized online services and all major payment systems. Now it's easy to take credit for webmoney, to Qiwi wallet or Yandex. It is quite natural that the Contact system also offers quick loans in cash.
The decision to issue a loan is made within an hour, no security (collateral or guarantee) is needed. Contact Bank has other offers ( credit cards, refinancing options, microloans for non-residents of the Russian Federation). All credit programs described on the website of the system.
In addition, many financial institutions and large fast lending services. Usually, when applying for an online loan, the user can choose whether to receive microloan on qiwi wallet, to a card, to an account in a bank or in cash through Contact.
Many credit services offer Contact users the best conditions. For example, the MoneyMan company, where you can get instant loan to Yandex wallet, installed maximum limit at 15 thousand rubles. But a person who has already taken loans there, and also presented a passport to the operator of the Contact system (when receiving cash), can request up to 1 million rubles.
Many prefer to work with the Contact system, people are attracted by ease of use, low interest rates for the implementation of transfers and payments, the speed of money transfer. I have read the reviews about this service and they are generally good. People note that:
Acceptable commissions in the system;
Contact technical support is completely adequate;
The service is reliable, payments are secure, transfers come quickly.
There are, however, negative reviews, but they are most often associated with mistakes made by the users themselves. If a person entered incorrect data when sending funds, especially abroad, the money will, of course, be returned to him, but the procedure may be delayed.
Otherwise, Contact is a profitable, convenient and reliable system that can be used to send and receive transfers.
On this I would like to wish you success and good luck. See you soon on the Rabota-Vo.ru blog pages!
Listen
The Contact system positions itself as the first Russian payment system. She started working in 1999. Through the Contact system, money can be transferred within Russia, as well as to the countries of the Near and Far Abroad. There are about 170 countries in total.
The Contact system is used by a huge number of people. For example, in 2011, according to the results of the popular vote, the system won the “Brand No. 1 in Russia” competition in the “Money transfers” category.
The currency of transfers is the Russian ruble, euros and dollars. To transfer money, you do not need to open a bank account, the system was originally invented for non-commercial purposes. You can transfer money and legal entities. But only to those with whom Contact cooperates. This is about 2000 thousand organizations. For example, through the Contact system, you can pay an invoice for using mobile phone, the Internet, pay for air or railway tickets, pay for purchases in some online stores. Money is transferred in a few minutes.
Through the Contact system, you can transfer money from a card to a card of any bank in Russia (Visa or MasterCard). Commission in the system - 1 percent.
The network of service points of the system is about 500,000.
It is easy to calculate the commission for transfers within Russia: there is a detailed online calculator on the official website of the payment system. The average tariff is 1 percent of the amount. In this case, the maximum transfer fee is 1,000 rubles. Domestic transfers can only be made in Russian rubles. The maximum amount is 500,000 rubles.
Tariffs for neighboring countries are low. For example, the size of the commission for transfers to Belarus, Georgia, Armenia is 1 percent, to Latvia and Lithuania - 1.5-2 percent.
For non-CIS countries, tariffs increase to an average of 3 percent (maximum - 4 percent). However, for these countries there are mostly fixed rates. The amount of the system depends on the size of the transfer. For example, sending $500 to Canada would cost $10. For Italy, an amount of $5,000 or more will cost $50.
The Contact system warns: all these tariffs are approximate and may vary within one country.
The standard translation from the Contact point to another point looks like this:
The procedure for making a money transfer through the Contact system is quick: 5-10 minutes. Additionally, you can order the SMS notification service that the money has been received.
Money transfer can also be made through the terminal, from card to card, through Internet banking. If no one picks up the transfer within 30 days, the money will be sent back.
Unlike, for example, from, you can keep track of the money that you sent. To do this, you need to enter the date of sending money and the control number. Another advantage is addressless forwarding. The recipient can select any Contact issuance point, rather than looking for a specific address.
To avoid mistakes, check that the full name information provided to the operator matches the information in the passport. If the mistake was nevertheless made, the sender must write a statement at the point where he made the transfer. You do not need to pay extra money for this operation.
The sender can also write an application in order to return his money if, for certain reasons, he wants to refuse the transfer.
The procedure for receiving money is even simpler than sending money, and comes down to several steps:
Not only the person indicated in the form, but also his official representative can receive the transfer. If you present a power of attorney officially issued by a notary, another person will be able to receive the translation.
