“The commission was introduced because from the very beginning it was assumed that once the service exists, it should have a commission. This is the standard provision for any banking product. But the system is in its infancy. Although it has been launched, not all banks are fully involved in it yet. The commission was also introduced in order to somehow increase competition in this market segment, ”the expert said.

According to him, the decision of the Central Bank “is by and large worth welcome, because it will provide an opportunity to increase demand from the client, the consumer of financial services.”

“The question remains what to do with the commission to all other participants in the banking market. But this is the next act of the play and we will see a lot of interesting things there, ”Maslennikov believes.

Earlier, the Central Bank canceled the commission for banks for transfers between individuals in the quick payment system.
