Sberbank has joined the pilot project of the digital ruble, which now includes 15 banks, among them VTB, Alfa-Bank, and Gazprombank. The digital ruble, which has been tested since August 2023, will be available to users starting from July 2025. Banks are required to offer customers the ability to open accounts, top them up, and make transfers with digital rubles. Banks that are not ready for implementation will face penalties. The goal of the project is to ensure the free use of the digital ruble alongside cash and non-cash money.
