Despite the fact that the system Yandex money it is written in black and white that the whole process takes from one to several weeks, including postal delivery, I did not stop logging into my wallet every few days.

At the very beginning, when studying the instructions, I came across a small footnote that said that you will see a request to confirm data only on the main page of the Yandex.Money website, so the appearance of a mysterious message even intrigued me a little.

And then, one fine day, once again, visiting my account, I saw something unusual in it, and without even reading the message to the end, I decided that it was related to identification.

But as it turned out later, it was just some kind of warning.
Later they sent me another notification about the so-called “safe Yandex mail”.

Wallet identification process

Then, the next day I received the long-awaited identification “message”, which was located directly under the data of the wallet itself, .

By the way, I even thought that this is how Yandex Money works - before identifying the user, they slip him various information like the one that appeared to me the day before. In general, immediately after wallet identification process became available, I began to sort through the proposed links, one after another.

Of course, after sending the SMS message, I had a form for checking it and this is what it looked like.

In the next window, I was asked to check my data (last name, first name, patronymic, series, passport number and other information), after which I could agree with what was displayed on the screen, refuse identification if someone else’s information was located there, or select " Almost correct, but there are errors or typos"which, alas, I had to use.

The fact is that there was a mistake in my passport number - one more digit was missing, so via a special form I had to submit an additional support request.

And then I again began to think that this mistake was probably made on purpose in order to test my attentiveness - and why am I so suspicious?

Even before sending registered letter With a notarized signature, I made a photocopy of the document, and frantically taking it out of the nightstand, I made sure that everything was filled out correctly.

I decided not to make a big deal out of this and simply wrote a short letter to Yandex Money, in which I pointed out the information that needed correction, for which I received an instant notification.

The full answer came quickly, but as it turned out, it was not even an answer, but rather an information that my letter had been transferred to someone else. In general, the response from Yandex Money user support on the topic of wallet identification was as follows.

As can be seen from the screenshot of my mailbox provided above, there was nothing meaningful in the sent letter.

The wallet identification process is still not completed, and now I have to wait again for someone to consider my claim on this issue, and given that the weekend is coming up, most likely this will not happen until Monday. And this is at best!

Unfortunately, it was not possible to demonstrate the process of identifying a wallet in one post, but apparently this is not such a difficult procedure if there are no difficulties along the way like the one I encountered. Although for some reason I am sure that in the end everything will be fine.

[Updated 09.09.2013] Well, as I thought, after the weekend my request was finally processed and today, almost in the morning on my email address I received a message from Yandex Money customer support with the following content.

The error has been fixed. Please confirm your identification in your wallet.

After checking the corrected error, I had to get a password again to confirm my passport data, but this time, after entering the text from the SMS message, I received this notification.

Unlike Arsen, whose comments can be seen under this note, my Yandex Money wallet was identified automatically and as soon as I entered my page, instead of a question mark next to the wallet number, I saw an icon in the form of a man, which, in principle, indicates successful completion of identification.

And if you now click on this “little man”, on the new page you will immediately see a huge inscription “You have already been identified”, under which the identified account is now clearly highlighted.

Actually, that's all. Wallet identification process Yandex Money is completely completed and now all that remains is to receive bank card“Yandex Money” and link it to your account.

Yandex Money Card This is the ultimate goal for which, in principle, I started all this. Having sufficient funds in your account and a bank card MasterCard Gold at hand, about problems with withdrawal electronic money you can forget once and for all.

Good day, dear readers. By withdrawing money from electronic payment systems, you can lose on commissions, remain at zero, and also earn a little extra money. Which option will you choose?

Today we will talk about how to identify Yandex money, and also touch a little on the issue of saving and profitable redistribution of funds. If you are satisfied with your current situation, and the only thing you would like is to understand how to withdraw funds from Yandex at minimal cost, then you don’t have to read this publication to the end. I'll start with the basics.

The easiest way to identify from Russia

I started my article with the fact that you can lose money when withdrawing funds. Surely you already know about this: any operation is carried out with a commission if your identity is not confirmed. The only excuse for people who have their own wallet, but do not think about identification and improving their status, is that they live without a passport. It is impossible to do this without him. If the document is available, then identification is outrageously simple.

There is a Euroset salon in almost every city. To confirm your identity, you just need to get there with documents and pay a one-time payment of 50 rubles.

What is the action plan:

• You need to fill out an application in the Yandex system. Here is the link: https://money.yandex.ru/ident-euroset.xml . The form looks like this. As you can see, nothing complicated at all.

If you do not want to fill out online or are not a citizen of the Russian Federation, then you need to download the application in Excel format from this page: https://money.yandex.ru/doc.xml?id=523000

• You fill out this thing and print it out, take your passport in addition and go to Euroset.
• Find a consultant in the communication salon and ask to make a payment for identification in Yandex Money.
• The manager enters your passport information and prints out the receipt. Sign it and give it to the cashier along with the money (50 rubles will be required).
• Wait a few minutes to make sure everything went well and the data was sent.
• Come home, open your wallet and click on balance.

See where I say “Anonymous.” Instead of this link there will be another one: “Identification Confirmation”.

Click on it, check all the data and enter your password.

• Done, the user has changed the status, everyone is happy and can connect a bank card to the wallet and save on transactions.

The same can be done through the CONTACT network of payment systems, but you will have to spend many times more on it. 250 rubles. Although in fact the process is free of charge, because the money is credited to your wallet.

Identification outside the Russian Federation

There is no Euroset in Ukraine and many other countries, but this does not mean that you cannot fully use Yandex Money.

What to do? You will have to turn to the services of a notary first, and then, since this is still a fairly important document, a courier. I would recommend not skimping and sending the package via DHL or a similar service. Russian Post works for a very long time, and if a package is lost, you will then have to repay a loan for one hundred thousand million or something even worse.

So, if you live in Belarus or one of the 32 countries, a list of which I will name a little later, then you are in luck. You will not need to spend money on an apostille. All you need from a notary is certification home page passport and registration, as well as signatures on the application form downloaded from this page: https://money.yandex.ru/doc.xml?id=523000 .

It is very good if the notary also attaches his contact information to the document. You never know, Yandex employees will want to contact him and make sure that his activities are legal.

We send the package to the address: 119021, Moscow, PO Box 57, NPO Yandex.Money LLC. Second option: send a courier to the Moscow office at Lev Tolstoy Street, 18B.

Ready. Now wait for the coveted identification link to appear under your wallet number.

And here is the list of lucky ones, as promised. So, you are lucky if you live in Kazakhstan or Azerbaijan, Armenia, Algeria, Albania, Bulgaria, Vietnam, Egypt, Georgia, Mongolia, Tajikistan, Yemen, Kyrgyzstan, Cyprus or Cuba, Hungary, Uzbekistan, Lithuania, Moldova, Spain, Poland , Romania, Slovakia, Latvia, Tunisia, Turkmenistan, Czech Republic, Ukraine, China, Estonia.

About redistribution and income

So, we have already learned how to break even when working with electronic money. Now it would be nice to also earn extra money from this. Don't be alarmed, I'm not going to tell you about complicated circuits. Besides, give up hope, you won’t make billions from this. To get a lot, you have to spend a lot. You and I are only talking about things that require nothing but time. I will show you new opportunity, and whether to use it or not is up to you.

Electronic money gives more possibilities than those kept in a jar or on a bookshelf.

You have Yandex and now you can withdraw funds from it without delays or commissions, but why? Let the money lie around until the passion is needed. Rubles always remain rubles. They can stay in your wallet for a year or three. What is the use of this, especially considering how the domestic currency is falling. During this time, only food in the store may become more expensive. Wouldn't it be better to convert everything into dollars, gold or bitcoins? The market situation is unstable. This is expected to last until 2017.

Unfortunately, you can only store rubles in Yandex. I recommend you have several electronic wallets V different systems, where it is possible to store currency and use it! Find best course possible using the exchange https://www.bestchange.ru , A detailed article the technique that I am now offering you has already been published on my blog. I won’t let my thoughts run wild now. I think this is enough to arouse interest in some, and indifference in others.

If you are not interested in such methods, then perhaps you will like the idea of ​​​​saving. Having several wallets in different payment systems, you spend less. It is a fact. You will never be left without money, because somewhere there will always be far from an extra 1000 rubles. Why is this happening? You keep track of the current accounts on the card, but your brain is not able to take into account a few more electronic systems. Something slips out of my head. Now you may not believe it, but if you try it, you will definitely be convinced of the reliability of the judgment.

You are creating additional difficulties for yourself. Most likely, of course, these are not difficulties, but a psychological barrier. You can withdraw money easily and simply, but you don’t want to do it! It always appears in my head: “This is on extreme case“,” “Well, here, without 200 rubles, it’s already 10,000, maybe I can add it up to a round sum, and then withdraw it?” and so on.

Believe me, it works. Check at own experience. You will always have time to refuse.

See you again and good luck in your endeavors!

Yandex.Money wallet identification is not only one of the conditions of the service. Depending on the status, the identified wallet gives the user different opportunities to perform certain financial transactions.

At the end of 2012, Sberbank acquired three-quarters of the stake in the Yandex.Money electronic payment system.

How to get identified outside of Russia

Residents of Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan and other CIS countries can turn to the so-called “Yandex.Money agents” who help identify the client’s wallet.

By contacting one of the agents by phone, you need to make an appointment at a certain time. Full list Agents' contact details are available on the Yandex website:

By the way, read the answer from Yandex very carefully, there are many tips on security and protection against phishing. Yes, and it is told in detail, what is phishing at all.

Modern technologies are constantly developing, and today we are increasingly resorting to the services of virtual payment systems. One such service is Yandex.Money. However, in order to fully use all the capabilities of this wallet, the user needs to identify himself. In this article we will look at how to authenticate in Yandex.Money.

What is it for

It would probably be logical to start with the question of why Yandex.Money verification is needed at all.

Identification is the recognition of an object. In our case, this is a procedure for checking passport information in order to determine the owner of the wallet and enter his data into the security service database.

This is required to increase the security of users and the safety of their virtual funds. An identified wallet with a complex password is almost impossible to hack.

In addition, it is no secret that in Lately Cases of fraud have become more frequent on the Internet - sophisticated ways of deceiving ordinary users are being invented. Therefore, the system requires adding personal data to Yandex.Money in order to protect its clients.

So, funds will be returned to the verified user if:

• it is no later than 24 hours after the transfer;
• verification will confirm the fact of hacking.

In addition, after the verification procedure the following advantages appear:

• The balance limit is increased to 500,000 rubles.
• The ability to make purchases worth up to 250,000 rubles in one payment and up to 3,000,000 in one month.
• Can . The limit will be up to 400,000 rubles per transfer.
• The ability to accept transfers from other users or collect charitable donations.
• . allows you to do .

Thus, we figured out why the series and passport number are needed for Yandex.Money.

Wallet identification methods

It's time to move on to the question of how to identify a Yandex wallet. There are several ways to complete verification:

1. Through Sberbank - this option is suitable for those who use Mobile Banking.
2. When visiting the poison department. Offices are located in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod.
3. In the communication salon "Euroset" or CONTACT - an option only for citizens of the Russian Federation.
4. With the help of poison agents. This method is for users in whose country agents operate. There are agents in Belarus, Ukraine, Yerevan, Baku, Crimea, Chisinau.
5. If all of the above options do not apply, you can submit an application for identification by mail.
6. Copying information from another Yandex wallet, provided that the same phone number is linked to both accounts.

As you can see, there is plenty to choose from. Previously, there was another way - to obtain Yandex.Money identification through WebMoney. However, several years ago the rules for obtaining a certificate (for WebMoney) and verification (for Poison) were revised, and the copy function from WM to Poison was simply closed. Now, in order, about the available options.

Through Sberbank

If you are a client of Sberbank and use Mobile Banking, then Yandex.Money-identification through Sberbank is for you. There are several steps to follow:

1. Specified here mobile phone, which is linked to the wallet. The Mobile Bank service must be connected to the same number, and this application must be installed on the phone itself.
2. Below in the “Date of Birth” line, enter your date of birth.
3. Click "Submit Request".
4. You will receive a message on your phone that you need to read.
5. 10 rubles will be debited from the card. This is needed for verification.

Within a few days, the data will be processed by the security service and will then appear in the Poison wallet. As you can see, everything is quite simple.

Copying personal data

We gradually approached the second option, how to copy identification in Yandex.Money. As mentioned above, this function is only available if your phone is linked to several YaD accounts and you have previously been verified on one of them, and now you just need to transfer the information. This procedure will also not cause difficulties:

1. Log in to your verified wallet (the one you have previously identified).
2. On the next page, indicate the wallet (enter your account number or login) into which you want to copy the information, and enter your password.
3. Log in to another YaD wallet (the one to which you need to copy your personal data). Click on your balance in the top right and follow the identification confirmation link.
4. Carefully check the correctness of the data entered. If everything is correct, confirm verification with your password.

There is no need to wait - immediately after confirmation the wallet will become verified.

Through the Euroset communication salon

As you already know, Yandex.Money identification through Euroset is only suitable for Russian citizens. There is also a certain sequence of actions:

1. Fill out the Yandex.Money identification application and print the form.
2. Take a printed application and passport with you and go to the nearest Euroset branch.
3. Tell the cashier that you want to pay for identification of your poison account. The cost of the service is 50 rubles.
4. Give your completed application and passport to the cashier, who will enter your details and print out a pre-receipt for you.
5. Check your receipt carefully. If you notice a mistake, ask the cashier to correct it. If everything is correct, sign the receipt.
6. Wait a few minutes for the information to be transmitted to the Poison Security Service. The cashier will inform you of the result.
7. Log in to your wallet, click on balance and follow the identification confirmation link. Check the information carefully again, and if everything is correct, enter your password to confirm.

As you can see, everything is quite simple. But if any difficulties arise, the cashier at Euroset will tell you what to do.

So, we looked at the three most simple and common options for wallet verification. Of course, you can send your application by mail. Read about this on the official website. If none of the options suits you, you can find your nearest agent using this link.

Is it possible to do without a passport?

Users often ask how to authenticate in Yandex.Money without a passport. The answer is quite simple: two methods are described above that do not require a passport. But these options imply that you have previously submitted the document to Sberbank or another YaD wallet.

In other cases, an identification document is required. Therefore, the answer to the question of how to bypass identification in Yandex.Money is no. The fact is that the security service is doing the checking - options to bypass the system are simply excluded.

Also, many are afraid to enter personal information, citing the possibility of information leakage. Hence the question of whether it is necessary to enter passport data into Yandex.Money. The answer is yes. As mentioned above, these issues are dealt with by the security service, which completely excludes theft of personal information.

If personal information changes

Of course, everyone understands that personal information can change. For example, girls have a surname after marriage. The phone number may also change. All this is provided in the system, and you can easily make adjustments.

So, how can you change your passport data in Yandex.Money? It's quite easy to do this:

The second important question is how to link your phone to Yandex.Money. This is done through the Poison Passport. We enter again Personal Area, find “Passport”. This time we go to the “Phone Numbers” tab.

On the page that opens, click “Add number”, enter your phone number, after which you will receive a message with a confirmation code. We enter the code in the appropriate window and confirm the binding.

We hope we helped you figure out how to get an identified account in the Yandex.Money system.
