Muscovite card becomes a sticker on a smartphone

The sticker with a chip is made faster than a regular card and retains all functions - from making an appointment with a doctor to paying for travel on transport

A new format of the Muscovite card is being tested in Moscow - a universal solution for receiving city services. Instead of a regular card, you can now order a sticker on a smartphone with a chip.

So far, the sticker is only being tested among different groups of Muscovites with different needs.

Using it is as easy as using a regular card. For example, to travel on transport, you need to attach the sticker to the validator, and to make an appointment with a doctor, attach it to the information kiosk in the clinic. Testing will last until the end of November. It involves, among others, disabled people of groups II and III, students and large families

If users like the new product and find it convenient, it will be developed. The sticker is produced faster than the card, and in the future it will reduce the production time of the temporary unified social ticket. Currently, the card takes thirty days to produce.

In addition, this sticker allows you to change the preferential category without replacing the card with a new one.

What is a Muscovite card and why is it needed?

The Muscovite Card is a personalized unified card for accessing the entire city infrastructure for a number of population categories. Currently, more than 5 million Muscovites have such a card, and more than 1 million cards were issued in 2023.

The card has a number of options: preferential or free travel, discounts in shops, cafes, entertainment, cultural or sports institutions.

Each preferential category of citizens receives its privileges on the Muscovite card. When switching to another preferential category, the card is changed, but the new sticker will avoid this<br>

The Muscovite card allows you to make an appointment with a doctor through terminals in the clinic and borrow books from Moscow libraries, if you first link it to a single reader card.
