Discussions and criticism

Wallet One is a relatively new payment system created by the company Wallet one in 2007, and enabling users to pay for a large number of services. Actually for this it was created. Works in several countries, such as Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, South Africa, USA, Kazakhstan.

It is also worth adding that for ease of use, the company has created special extensions for browsers, an application for IPhone, Ipad, as well as phones with operating system Android... You can download all this for free on the official website of the payment system.

It is interesting that you can register a wallet both by e-mail and by phone. Moreover, the whole point of registration is that you enter your mail or phone number in a line, after which you receive a message with data, a password, and a wallet number is assigned. After that, you can log into your account and start using the service.

It is also possible to bill other users. This is especially convenient when buying goods from online stores. Also interesting is that it is possible to bill a non-existent user. In this case, the system will inform you that there is no such user in the system, but it will still create new account, which will be invoiced.

Differences from well-known payment systems

Wallet One has a number of differences from other payment systems. Here's what they are:

Service simplicity. If you take the same WebMoney, then you can easily notice that the payment system is crammed with a large bunch of different services. Personally, for the first month I made vain attempts to understand their site. With a single wallet, everything is much easier: one site, one account. You will see for yourself during the registration process.

Very low commission when transferring money from one wallet to another. Sometimes it is absent altogether, when the same webmoney has a fixed percentage for users with any passport.

A large number of ways to withdraw and deposit money to the wallet. Read more about this below.

Deposit and withdrawal methods

To begin with, I will tell you about one chip of this wallet. If you ran to the nearest terminal in order to replenish your wallet, and even replenished it, but when you came home found that it was empty, do not be alarmed. The thing is that when you transfer funds to your wallet, they are not automatically credited to it. In order to complete the transfer, you must confirm it. In the same way, payment for something happens - until the seller confirms the payment in his wallet, the money will not be transferred.

There are a huge number of ways to replenish Wallet One.

Here are the most basic ones:

Payment terminals,

Other electronic payment systems (WebMoney, Yandex Money, Qiwi, Rapida),

Bank transfer (a large number of banks are connected to this payment),

There is even the possibility of replenishing from the Qiwi payment terminal,

Other alternative ways.

But there are fewer ways to withdraw:

Postal transfer,

Receive money through a payment acceptance point,

And recently it became possible to withdraw to a bank card, and in 80 countries of the world.

But, as mentioned above, Wallet One is more suitable not for withdrawing funds from the Internet, but rather for paying for services. With it you can pay for services such as the Internet, cellular telephone, utilities, bank loans, pay for orders in online stores, and more. Please note that the minimum payment in this system is only 10 rubles.

As you can see, Wallet One is easy to use, easy to pay for services, making it ideal for many people.
