Many aspiring entrepreneurs who are planning to launch an online store face this dilemma. How to do this correctly without breaking the law? Let's find out in this article.
In general, there are two ways to organize payments online: organize direct payment acceptance through the acquiring bank and, that is, through an intermediary.
Which method is more profitable? It depends on the size of your business. For a fairly large company with decent turnover, the first option will be much more profitable: the costs of connecting to the payment system will pay off relatively quickly. For small companies just starting a business, it is recommended to pay attention to the second option. The payment aggregator allows you to connect several types of payment at once, which can be beneficial in order to attract customers. The aggregator commission in this case will be cheaper than the fee for using the payment system.
How to directly connect Internet acquiring
To accept money by plastic cards on your website, you first need to select the bank with which you will work. This is not an easy task. What is recommended to pay attention to?
- Commission. Banks set a certain commission amount, usually a certain percentage of each payment made. Find out the bank's conditions in advance. Note that the optimal commission size is up to 3%.
- Does the bank charge a connection fee? Many banks do not charge an additional fee for this operation.
- Does the bank have its own processing center? If there is, then the cost of such a bank’s services will be lower compared to other offers.
- Payments from which cards can be accepted. Acceptance of the most common cards - VISA and MasterCard - must be configured.
- Does the bank require collateral in the form of a deposit? If there is no such requirement, then you do not need to always have an untouchable amount in your account.
- Does the bank have technical support? Technical support should be even better if it is 24/7. This way you will protect yourself from unforeseen situations, as you will always be able to resolve the issue that arises.
Evaluate the banks according to all the listed parameters and choose the best option. Then you need to submit an application for connection and a package of documents to the selected bank. The composition of the documents provided is determined by the bank. The bank also checks your website to see if it meets the technical requirements or not. If all the requirements are met, then you can set up integration with the bank’s system.
With this option, all customer payments will be sent to your bank checking account. It should be noted that Internet acquiring as a procedure is completely transparent to tax authorities.
What to do with an electronic wallet
There are many nuances to accepting payments into electronic wallets.
Firstly, a separate law “On the National Payment System” is devoted to this area. According to this regulation, if you want to use a wallet for business purposes, it must be a corporate wallet. This means that to create it, you must indicate the details of your company, and then link it to your current account: you can only top up your wallet or withdraw funds from it to this linked account.
Secondly, to create such a wallet, you need to sign an agreement with the chosen payment system. It must comply with the provisions of the law and apply to credit institutions. The most famous of such systems are Yandex.Money, Paypal, and some use QIWI. Webmoney is also very popular, but it is not covered by the law mentioned above, so it can offer an agent work scheme. The nuance is that in this case you will not have to register in the system itself, that is, there will be no violation of the law on your part.
Thirdly, chosen payment system will also check your site. The main requirements are:
- first/second level domain;
- hosting the site on a paid server (a free server will cause failure);
- the relevance of the contacts listed on the site.
You will be able to conclude an agreement and set up payment acceptance only if you receive a positive conclusion after verification.
Finally, upon admission electronic money there are restrictions. Payments can only be made by individuals; individual entrepreneurs and organizations cannot make payments among themselves using electronic money - this is prohibited by law. The limit on the balance of money on a corporate wallet is set at 600 thousand rubles; all funds in excess of the limit will be transferred to the current account without your order.
Thus, using a personal wallet in business activities is prohibited. This is considered a violation. If small turnovers of 10-30 thousand rubles can go unnoticed, then it is impossible to use it in a business with large turnovers.
How to work with a payment aggregator
The payment aggregator allows you to use several payment methods at once; for this it is not necessary to sign agreements with each payment system. The aggregator, within the framework of a single agreement, will set up the required payment acceptance option for you, acting as an intermediary between the entrepreneur and the service provider.
The main advantage of an agreement with an aggregator is that there is no need to develop your own payment page. This significantly speeds up the procedure for connecting to online payments. You don't need to monitor several wallets at once. All funds from clients will be credited to the aggregator’s account, and then transferred from it to your details. For such a service, the intermediary usually charges a higher commission.
There are many popular aggregators, for example the well-known ones. You need to choose an aggregator based on approximately the same criteria as the acquiring bank: you should pay attention to the size of the commission, the conditions and terms of connection, and the availability of technical support.
Internet sales tax
Beginning Internet businessmen most often pay taxes according to the simplified tax system. According to the law, tax should be calculated on the amount received from the client, and not on the amount that arrived in your current account after deducting the commission. This is due to the fact that income from sales is considered as the cost of all goods and services. When calculating tax on the simplified tax system, income is reflected on the date of payment by the client.
If you use the simplified tax system with the “income minus expenses” base, then the amount of the commission can be taken into account as part of the expenses. Confirming the date of receipt of income can be an extract from an electronic wallet, a register of payments or another report that the aggregator provides you. The commission is usually taken into account on the date of the confirming document, since it is written off immediately when the payment is made and it is quite problematic to take it into account as of the same day.
Credit calculation method- this is a convenient form of payment for MTS services, in which you can pay for services only once a month - in the amount in which you used them in the previous month.
When and how much to pay?
Every month after the 5th, when you request a balance *100#, you will be able to see the invoice amount for the services provided for the previous month, which you need to pay in full no later than the 25th of the current month.

Option mobile operator MTS, called “On Full Trust”, provides for payment for calls after the fact. Let's consider in detail how to activate the service, what opportunities it provides and how to disable the credit of trust on MTS.
How to connect?
When connecting to the service, the subscriber is usually allocated a credit limit of 300 rubles. The limit is subject to revision monthly and the revision algorithm is simple - the more money we spend on communication services, the higher the limit becomes.
The operator automatically analyzes the subscriber's expenses for the last three months, displays the arithmetic average and adds 20% to it. The amount received becomes the limit for the next month.
A new credit limit is assigned if the resulting figure is 50 rubles or more higher than the previous one. And after six months, the credit limit will increase by 50% based on average monthly expenses.
The main thing is not to forget to regularly top up your balance after issuing, in this case the number will be blocked. The number will also be blocked if the established credit limit is exceeded.
Let's look at how to activate the “In Full Trust” service from MTS. Subscribers who meet several parameters can receive the service. This:
- Subscribers who connected MTS mobile communications at least three months ago
- Those whose total top-up amount over the last three months was at least 200 rubles
- Subscribers who have fully repaid all debts on all their accounts
- Those subscribers who have a positive balance at the time of connection to the service

How is the credit limit calculated?
We can independently influence the final figures in order to fix the limit assigned to us and by prohibiting or enabling its recalculation, although the limit itself is calculated automatically by the operator. This is due to the fact that eventually the credit limit may become quite large, which is why many subscribers will want to forcibly limit it, thereby preventing too high communication costs. You can manage the limit both through the “Internet Assistant” and using the SMS menu *111*2136#, called by the USSD command.
Payment
Now let's talk more about paying bills. Payment must be made on the 24th of each month for the previous period. For example, September calls must be paid before October 24th. One week and one day before, a warning SMS will be sent to your number indicating the amount of debt for the service.

In this review, we will try to understand the issue of how to disable services on MTS if they are charged. Sometimes it happens that a subscriber selects services that are incomprehensible to him, which he does not need, and he is charged for them cash. This usually happens like this: the subscriber purchases a service package, which consists of certain paid and free services. After some certain time, the conditions change, and some of the services become paid. Thus, the subscriber begins to be charged more money than he planned. Sometimes it happens that the subscriber does not receive notification about this and he begins to incur unexpected expenses. To prevent this from happening to you, we recommend that you actively use where all operations with your number can be performed in a self-service format.
Sometimes, along with the activation of packages, paid subscriptions are activated. This can also happen at the time of receiving an SMS, and the user himself can accidentally or intentionally carry out the operation of connecting a subscription in the menu. As a rule, the subscriber forgets about such subscriptions, and funds begin to be withdrawn from his account. It may also be that someone close to the subscriber somehow activates a paid service or randomly subscribes to paid content, so be careful: always monitor the services available on your account.
