2024: Installation of biometric terminals
Sberbank installed biometric terminals in all metro lobbies in the city. In total, in Yekaterinburg, as of November 2024, there are 9 metro stations and 14 lobbies, where payment for travel by biometrics is now possible. Sberbank announced this on November 11, 2024.
So far, only Sberbank customers can pay for travel with a "smile." To use the service, they need to connect face recognition in the SberBank Online application. The easiest way to do this is to tell the virtual assistant "Pay with a smile" and follow the instructions.
From December 2024, cardholders and other Russian banks will be able to pay for metro travel via biometrics.
