Inquiring about payment methods.
문화적 배경
Russia has one of the highest penetrations of contactless payments in the world. Even in small towns, 'Картой можно?' is usually met with a 'Yes'. If they say 'No' to a card, they might suggest a 'perevod' (transfer). This is a very Russian phenomenon where you send money via a phone number using a banking app. Traditionally, tips were cash-only. Now, many terminals allow you to add a tip before tapping your card. You can ask: 'А чаевые можно картой?' In Moscow and St. Petersburg, you can pay for the metro and buses directly at the turnstile with a bank card. You don't even need to ask!
The 'Mir' Card
If you are in Russia, most terminals now use the 'Mir' system. Your card might be a 'Mir' card even if it's digital.
Always have a little cash
Even though 'Картой можно?' works most places, small kiosks or street performers will still need 'nalichka' (cash).
