BRICS Pay Ready To Link With Visa and Mastercard

Andrey Mikhaylishin, co-founder of the BRICS Pay project, confirmed that the payment system is open to facilitating linkages with Visa and Mastercard. He elaborated that the system’s foundational principles are to seamlessly upgrade its mechanism to benefit the alliance.

“BRICS Pay is predicated on open integration,” he said. “Initially, the system will facilitate linkages with Visa and Mastercard, thereby enabling foreign tourists and residents to seamlessly connect their existing cards to the application and conduct transactions without impediment.”
