OREANDA-NEWS. August 12, 2010. The technological leader in the Russian market of electronic payments CyberPlat® and the largest domestic mobile retailer Euroset implemented a unique project providing customers with absolutely unprecedented level of convenience and speed of servicing while making all types of regular payments - for housing and communal services, power supply, fixed and long-distance telecommunication - with use of the bar-code technology. In the nearest future, this channel of accepting utility bills is capable of making a serious competition to traditional methods of making payments at Sberbank and Russian Post.

In order to make a payment, it is enough to show the receipt with a bar code to the cashier in a Euroset store. The commission fee for this service at Euroset will make 2 % from the payment amount. The payment procedure will take less than 5 minutes. The amount is credited to the account of housing and communal services companies within 2 days. Currently, the described technology allows to pay for utilities (receipt of EIRZ (Uniform Information and Payments Center)), electric power ("Mosenergosbyt" (Moscow power sale)), landline communication, and long-distance calls (MGTS and Rostelecom).

The payments can be made at the cash desks of more than 650 Moscow stores of Euroset. The use of bar code reduces the time for servicing the customers which is very important both for payers, and for the retail chain.
