Question Sending money to russian accounts

[kkein]

Apparently all banks reject swift transfers to russian accounts, even if on those two exempted banks (sber, gazprom).
I have read they are setting up alternate systems, like one chinese one, and another one called mir?
So i wonder: has any swift (or sepa) to these other systems gateway already popped up?
Or how those of you who send money to russia do it?

does it really comes to you as an surprise?

Try with bitcoin or other cryptocurrency, that will work.

Is there a service that makes this transparent? Or what are crypto to rub institutions in russia?

I read russia started to use UnionPay now. Maybe that way?

Better send over bananas and coffee, that will be the new exchange currency over there

From where to where do you want to send and what figures?

 

[JamesDonkey]

I guess you could send it to a neural country first, and from there - to Russia. Kazakhstan, Armenia, Turkey, for instance.

With carrier pigeon.

I read that Russia started to distribute UnionPay cards now. Are there ways to refill those cards?

From where to where do you want to send and what figures?

I am currently helping client's sending money out of Russia as we have 16 non-res accounts there, but it's usually 7 figures. Funnily enough, clients are referrals coming from heads of Russian private banking

In theory if someone has an account in russia with rubles, and an account outside in USD/EUR, he/she could do brokerage until rubles end of course.
I'd be willing to pay advantageous, pre conflict exchange rate

Are they recurring payments? For some work, every month or so? If so, send me a PM - I know a service, which apparently works.

Trying it (never used that app), i see it has two transfer options: paysera transfer and bank transfer. I suppose i should be using the second, since i read russian citizens got their accounts closed.
I wonder if anybody has tried?
