Sergey Khromov, Vice President, Head of Tinkoff Checkout, commented:
"Tinkoff Checkout is designed to address all business tasks simultaneously. For example, when companies go online, they may immediately need to set up a website, start accepting payments, issue receipts, hire couriers and arrange instant payments to those couriers, introduce a tipping solution, etc.

Tinkoff Checkout covers all of those scenarios, both online and offline. Our system provides companies with the most comprehensive range of payment services currently available on the market.

Tinkoff Checkout will be organized as a construction set, so companies are able to select a specific set of services and solutions tailored to their needs. Moreover, this can be done at a speed that is unprecedented for the Russian market. Some of our services can be activated within a day, compared with a market standard of three to five days. How did we achieve this? By applying state-of-the-art technologies used by Tinkoff to the corporate payments market.

In addition, we also offer a wide range of industry solutions for different business segments, including international customers.

Tinkoff Checkout provides a full range of services for businesses, including cash management services, merchant acquiring, in-house solutions for online cash registers and it is compliant with Law No. 54-FZ. Our offer is unrivaled on the market.

The launch of Checkout is a natural step for Tinkoff, given the growth of the e-commerce market, which has accelerated during the pandemic. In 2020, the turnover of Tinkoff's Internet acquiring business doubled, with the number of active merchants surging by more than 60%. In 2020, Tinkoff ranked in the world's top 100 acquirers for the first time. We expect the growth of the number of new clients of Tinkoff's payment services to accelerate three-fold in 2021."

Tinkoff's acquiring and payment services are currently used by more than 200,000 companies and individual entrepreneurs. Its partners include major Russian and international companies, such as online and offline retailers, online marketplaces, brokers and management companies, microfinance organizations, taxi firms, airlines, social media entrepreneurs and various other SMEs and large businesses.

Tinkoff is also a leading Russian bank in terms of the number of merchants connected to the Fast Payment System. Half of all the sales outlets accepting QR code payments via the Fast Payment System are partners of Tinkoff's Internet acquiring payment service.
