Now the service works only on sites in most popular browsers. The Yandex Pay button is available to those who linked the card to a Yandex account and logged in. In the future, people will be able to pay through Yandex Pay in mobile applications, in all browsers and in regular offline stores.

Yandex plans to release an SDK for application developers. According to Yandex, the Yandex Pay button has already been installed by Lamoda, Brandshop and other well-known brands; several large online stores have submitted an application.
