Games can be paid for from Russia again: T2 opened payment via SBP for Steam and PlayStation

Users of any operators will be able to top up accounts and buy in-game currency

T2 has added payment for foreign digital services via the Faster Payments System (SBP). Now users can top up Steam, PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Google Play and other platforms, even if their number is serviced by another operator.

Previously, the service only worked for T2 subscribers: payment was debited from the phone balance. The new SBP option removes this restriction – it is enough to select the desired platform and pay for the purchase through the banking application.

More than two thousand foreign games are available in the catalog, including Minecraft and PUBG Mobile. Through the service, you can also buy in-game currency and top up account balances.

We see a great demand from users for payment for foreign services.

Previously, a similar service was developed by MTS. Through "MTS Payment", users could buy foreign Sony PlayStation accounts and subscriptions, paying for the order via SBP, Russian bank cards or mobile phone balance.
