Russia's GDP is smaller than California, so meh.

As far as I know, California is bankrupt, while Russia's GDP is still growing at a good pace. Anyway what this has to do with the payment system? Are you saying that only countries with GDPs higher than that of California are entitled to national payment sytsems? Grin

Note: Latest figures indicate California's GDP at $1.8 trillion. The Russian GDP is officially at $2.0 trillion, but after including the informal sector (quite big in Russia) it might increase to $3.0-3.5 trillion.

on the other hand Visa takes a 1% to 4% of your sales in fees, when a lot of businesses make less than 5% of revenue in net profit. A cheaper Russian alternative would help Russian businesses and keep the money in Russia

I think Russia is not strong enough to create own competitive national payment system

lol... Strong enough for what? Even the neighboring Belarus is having its own national card payment system. You want to say that financially, Russia is in a weaker position when compared to Belarus?

Russia’s payment system not replacement, but needed alternative to Visa, MasterCard

http://rt.com/business/161088-russia-payment-system-gref

It is a replacement on the national scale it is not on the international scale, it would similar to what exist in France = CB (Carte blue) system, where you have your credit card, with CB compliance and either VISA or Mastercard so that you can use your credit card when you are traveling or doing payement to international websites and stuff

but 90% off all countries leaders can't say no to USA

I'm from Croatia, and our foreign policy is made by USA embassy in Zagreb

Too hard to shrug off the US dominance once it takes hold. The USA used the Balkan wars to cement its place in the ex-Yugoslavia. Now all the nations there are under its grip.

USA leadership thinks that Putin and his team are stupid.

You can fool Russian's (Putin/Medvedev) once (Lybia......)

but you can't full them twice (Syria, Ukraine).

Now no more Visa&Master, year from now no more USD.....

Can't get to the top in Russia if he is incompetent.

IMO, Russia had made the right decision to adopt a national card payment system. It's better late than never.

Every single nation should be having its own national payment system. Why depend on the thieves of Visa / Master, when we can have much better and less exploitative options?

Russia demands $3.8bn security deposit from Visa and Mastercard

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/may/06/russia-security-deposit-visa-mastercard-sanctions-ukraine

Quote

International credit card companies face a "severe impact" on their operations in Russia following a strict new law Moscow has adopted in response to Visa and Mastercard freezing service to banks under US sanctions. Visa described the regulations as "unprecedented" and Mastercard said it could experience difficulties, the Russian magazine Snob reported, after Vladimir Putin signed a law on Monday to create a rival national payment system.

Slavjansk should be on the first place, it's in blockade now.

Yes, it is. Our funding goes through Donetsk, center of resistance, and they distribute it according to their immideate needs

I don't think anyone would mind you publishing donation information in a new thread.
However, you should also provide solid documentation of you activity, or standard scam suspicions would apply.

I understand your concern. There will be not just BTC and LTC wallets but standard bank trasfer information as so as website of our organisation will all contacs. I will also provide my personal data and my soc network page. For those who wish i can talk on telephone or zello channel. Soon i will make post but still it would be great to have positive call from moderators.
