For a step-by-step guide, see <a href=\"\/en\/how-to-buy\/\">How to buy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>How do I pay for my order?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shop prices are shown in Russian rubles. After you place an order, we send you a confirmation and payment instructions. Once payment is confirmed, we send the activation code to your email address.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>Do I need to register?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. You can order without registering by providing your name and email address. If you create an account, you can view your order history there.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>What currency are prices and card values shown in?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All payments are in Russian rubles, so you do not need a foreign bank card to buy from us. The card value shown on the product page is the amount credited to your account after activation.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>Can I buy several cards at once?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes.

Before buying, check your account's region in the relevant store, such as the App Store, PlayStation Store or Steam.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>How do I check my account's region?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look for the country in your profile or billing address in the service's account settings.

Redeeming a card through a VPN may violate the service's rules and lead to your account being blocked. Make sure your account's region matches the card's region before activation.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>How do I redeem my code?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each product page includes step-by-step instructions for the relevant service, also included in the email with your code. Check your account's region again before redeeming the code.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\">\n<summary>Do gift cards expire?<\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The expiry date depends on the service and is usually listed in the card's instructions.
