Turkish Visa cards have appeared for sale on online marketplaces. They provide Russians with the opportunity to make online and offline purchases abroad.
Turkish bank cards provide access to international payment systems, allowing you to pay for goods in foreign online stores, subscribe to foreign services, and make transactions that are not available with Russian cards.
Users note the convenience of such cards: they can be used to pay for orders on platforms such as Amazon and eBay, book hotels through Booking, and make purchases in clothing stores such as Zara and H&M. The cards allow you to withdraw cash from ATMs abroad and pay for subscriptions to streaming services.
Reviews confirm that the cards work stably, and the process of linking them to an account takes a minimum of time. Some users complain that the cards are scratched.
Experts warn that such cards are only suitable for daily payments, but are not intended for long-term savings.
