The National Payment Card System (NSPK, operator of Mir cards) has applied to Rospatent for registration of the Papayya trademark for an existing product. This was reported by NSPK.
According to the patent application, NSPK will use the name Papayya for:
- biometric identification cards with magnetic code
- payment terminals
- issuing traveler's checks
- issuing credit cards
- online banking services
- digital data encryption services
NSPK partners are already using this solution in the development of their own Pay-services so that customers can pay for goods and services with tokenized Mir cards.
Experts suggested that the Papayya brand is being created for a new payment service or to launch a cross-border transfer system similar to Zolotaya Korona or Unistream.
Earlier www1.ru reported that SberPay entered Turkey.
