Card, SBP and T-Pay payments are processed by T-Bank JSC (Russia). When you click “Pay”, the site redirects you to the bank’s secure payment page where you choose a card, SBP or T-Pay and confirm the payment. Afterwards the bank returns you to the order page.
Currency and exchange rate
The catalogue is priced in US dollars. On the Russian version of the site the rouble amount is shown next to the price — this is the amount charged when paying with Russian methods. It is calculated at our rate at the time of ordering (including a small buffer for currency fluctuations) and rounded to whole roubles. Once you proceed to payment the amount stays fixed for 10 minutes.
If you pay with a foreign card in another currency, your bank converts the amount at its own rate.
Security
- Card details are entered only on the bank’s page. We never receive or store the card number, expiry date or CVC.
- The payment page is PCI DSS compliant; payments are confirmed with 3-D Secure (SMS or push code from your bank).
- The connection to the site is protected by TLS (the address starts with https://).
- Suspicious orders are reviewed manually — occasionally we may ask you to confirm a payment.
Receipt
After payment a fiscal receipt compliant with Russian Federal Law No. 54-FZ is sent to your e-mail. Seller: Sole proprietor Ekaterina V. Iskusnykh (TIN 260709247153), simplified taxation, no VAT.
After payment
- The bank notifies us of the payment — usually within seconds.
- We issue the eSIM profile with the operator and send the QR code and instructions to your e-mail and Account (and to the bot if linked). See “Delivery”.
- If the order page keeps showing “Awaiting payment”, press “I have paid” — we will check the status with the bank. If money was charged but no profile arrived within 30 minutes, contact support@farsim.app.
Payment problems
- Declined by the bank — check card limits and online payment settings; try SBP.
- Charged but the order is unpaid — banks usually cancel the authorisation within minutes; otherwise contact us with the order number and time of payment.
- Charged twice — the duplicate payment is refunded in full (see Refund Policy).
Refunds
Terms and timing are in the Refund Policy. Refunds go to the original payment method within 10 business days.
