A test batch of bracelets will be delivered to Shoe stores of Russia in the Siberian District. In the future, the company plans to produce up to 20 thousands of such bracelets per year and will distribute them throughout its entire retail.

The new tool will allow you to pay with one touch to those who do not carry a bank card and / or do not want to attach the card to the phone, these are primarily children, youth, pensioners. So our customers will save time and pay for goods and services in the most convenient way for them. The synchronization of the bracelet and the Arithmetic mobile application will help the client always know the balance of funds on the card, view the history of operations, replenish the balance of funds for free and make payments and / or transfers.
