What is Yandex Money?
Yandex Money is an electronic wallet for storing money on the Internet, from the Yandex company. Created in 2002 in Russia, and is one of the most common wallets in Runet and the CIS. On the Internet it is also very often called Yandex Wallet or Yandex Money. Any Internet user can get it completely free of charge.
Using this wallet, you can make payments and withdraw money in cash. In addition, all Yandex Money users have the opportunity to receive a personalized bank card linked to an electronic wallet.
In addition, this wallet allows you to accept funds from most services that belong to Yandex: Yandex Toloka. Edadil, Yandex Zen and many others.
Registration and wallet creation
To create a wallet, follow the link below.

Next, you have three options: registration through social networks, registration through a Yandex account, and registration by creating a new account. Now I will analyze each of these options in more detail.
Registration via social networks
If you do not have an account on Yandex, you can register your wallet through the social network Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki, Facebook and others. To do this, in a new window you just need to click on the desired social network.
After which you will see a new window in which you need to consent to registration by clicking on the “I agree, allow” button.

Its essence is simple: when you click on the link above, you will be taken to a standard registration window, in which you need to fill in a login, password, email for notifications (you can simply indicate the same name that you indicated in the login column and add @yandex.ru to it) , phone and click “Continue”.

Working with the application on your phone
If you use Yandex Money on a regular basis, it would be a good idea to download the mobile application. SMS notifications do not always arrive on time, but the application is always with you. Yes, and there are nice bonuses when working with the application. For example, no commission on transfers.
To start receiving SMS regardless of Internet access, follow our instructions.
Go to the main settings and click in the section “Passwords in SMS” , then go to “Passwords in the application” . After this step, you need to confirm the code via SMS.

To finally finish, enter the password from the application into the line on the website. The code is updated every 30 seconds.
“Emergency Codes” to confirm payment . To do this, go to the same section with passwords and click on “Release emergency codes” . We previously installed a password app. We enter one of these passwords in the “Password from application” . Now we copy the list of proposed codes and use them when you are roaming. Be careful. Do not keep the list in a place accessible to scammers.

And all this without queues, sitting at home in a comfortable chair - that’s why an online wallet is needed. The payment currency here is only the Russian ruble. The system has a wide range of payment instruments from a crowdfunding platform and charity to a comprehensive business solution (Yandex.Checkout).
How to get identified
In order to undergo identification or verification on the Yandex Money service, as it is also called, click on your avatar.
In the drop-down menu next to the “Withdraw” button, find the active “identification” link and click on it.
Next, you will see a new window that describes each status in detail. Under each of the statuses at the end of the page, there are corresponding buttons: for a personal one - “Fill out the form”, for an identified one - “Pass identification”.
I recommend doing full identification right away so as not to waste time on expanding the powers of the wallet in the future. Therefore, feel free to click on the “Pass identification” button.
In the next window, indicate your country of residence and your citizenship. For example: let’s set the host country to Turkey, and citizenship to the Russian Federation. After which we have possible confirmation options. Just select the option you need and click on it.
Then simply follow the instructions, and your Yandex Wallet identification will be successfully completed.
How to open a Yandex Money bank card
In order to withdraw your earnings into cash, you will need a bank card. You can create it in your Yandex Money personal account; to do this, just find the “Yandex.Money Cards” tab and click on it.
Next, a window will open in front of you in which you need to find the “Yandex Money Plastic Card” item, read about all its advantages, including cashback, and click on the “Order” link.
In the next window, select the color of the card and click on the “Next” button.
Next, you need to indicate the country, city, and address where you want the card to be delivered. Then find the “Next” link and click on it.
At the penultimate stage, you need to indicate your first and last name. The “Data on map” field, as a rule, is automatically translated into the form required by Yandex, so there is no need to fill it out. After filling out all the fields, simply click on the “Next” link.
In the last window, you once again check and verify all your data. If there are any errors, then click on “Change”. If everything is written correctly, then click on “Correct for payment”.
Next, you need to pay for the creation of your card; this can be done from a card of any other bank. To pay, simply enter your card details and click “Pay”.
Typically, after clicking the pay button, you will need to confirm the transfer via SMS. You confirm it accordingly and that’s it, after these steps the card will be successfully created.
The card is produced within approximately 1 week, add to this the delivery time by mail - 1-2 weeks. As a guide, I can say that I personally received the card about two weeks after ordering.
Customer support via account

To send a letter, a special form is opened, filled out and sent to the payment service employees. The response will be sent to the specified mailbox.

Bottom line
Yandex Money is an electronic wallet that every Internet user needs. Its undoubted advantage is its accessibility and ease of use. In addition, if you do not have wallets: WebMoney, Qiwi wallet, Payeer and AdvCash, I recommend that you create them, because they are also the most common on the RuNet.
