Premium World Black Edition card. Mastercard World Black Edition - conditions and privileges Description of the card class

What is a credit card and how is it different from a debit card?

A credit card is a card for making purchases on credit. Unlike a debit card, which holds your own money, a credit card holds the bank's money. You can use this money to buy goods in stores and online. You can even transfer money to friends or family or withdraw cash from an ATM, but keep in mind that the bank will charge a fee for these transactions.

How to choose a credit card?

When choosing, pay first of all to the size of bonuses for purchases, the cost of service, the size of the credit limit and privileges from the payment system.

At what age can you get a Sberbank credit card?

Any Russian citizen aged 21 to 65 years inclusive with permanent or temporary registration in any locality of the country can apply for a credit card. The bank makes a decision on issuing a card and the size of the credit limit individually.

What is a pre-approved card offer and how do I know if there is one for me?

A pre-approved offer is an offer from a bank to issue a credit card with a pre-approved credit limit. If you receive such an offer, this means that the bank is highly likely to approve you for a card.

To find out if there is a pre-approved offer for you, . If there is an offer, you will immediately see the approved credit limit and preferential conditions. The card will be delivered to the branch of your choice.

How to start using a Sberbank credit card?

After receiving the card, first of all, make sure that your first and last name in Latin transcription is correctly indicated on its front side. Then sign your name on the reverse side in the signature line.

To start using the card, you need to activate it. Come up with and set a PIN code - a bank employee will tell you how to do this. Once the card is activated, you will be able to make purchases

How to pay by card in stores and online?

In the shop. Tell the cashier you are going to pay by card. Insert the card into the payment terminal and enter the PIN code. If you have a card with contactless payment, simply present it to the payment terminal. Purchases over 1,000 rubles require entering a PIN code. The cashier may also ask you to sign a check.

In the Internet. On the payment page in the online store, enter your card details. To confirm payment, an SMS with a code will be sent to your phone. Be careful: you do not need to enter a PIN code when paying online - it is dangerous.

How to pay interest on a Sberbank credit card?

Interest for using credit funds is debited from the card automatically, so you don’t need to do anything special for this. But if you manage to return the money during the grace period, which lasts from 20 to 50 days, you will not have to pay interest.

How to avoid credit card interest?

To avoid paying interest, try to repay the purchase balance within the interest-free period.

For example, the report date for your card is October 1, which means the grace period begins on October 2. If you made a purchase on October 2, you have 50 days to repay the loan without interest, that is, until November 21. If you make a purchase on October 20, then there are 32 days left until November 21 to repay the full amount of the debt without interest.

What transactions are not covered by the grace period?

The grace period does not apply to amounts of cash withdrawal transactions, transactions in casinos and sweepstakes, payments for online games, purchases of foreign or cryptocurrency, traveler's checks, lottery tickets, non-cash transfers, including transfers to electronic wallets, as well as amounts exceeding the limit loan.

Where can I find out the date of my credit card statement?

How to increase the credit limit on a card?

The decision to increase the credit limit is made by the bank. If you actively use the card, the bank may decide to increase the credit limit amount. If you have not used a credit card for a long time or have not used it actively, the bank may offer the client to reduce the limit on the credit card. Such offers usually come via SMS.

After a year of use I will write a review on the credit card

These are premium credit cards with a limit of up to 3,000,000 rubles.

A few months after receiving a mortgage, an offer with an approved credit card appeared in Sberbank’s personal account.

To be honest, this was very helpful. The renovations in the apartment were completed, but there were no appliances, furniture, etc. in it at all. And vacation is just around the corner. Still, they want everything at once.

Don’t go anywhere on vacation and buy all the equipment, or go on vacation and sleep on the floor)

We decided to cheat and use a credit card) So that we could pay for it for the rest of our lives.

Maintenance cost

4900 rubles per year.

Why so expensive? The card is considered premium. She has additional bonuses, which I will talk about below.

In the meantime, you can just tell everyone that you have a “luhari”/platinum card))

Receiving a card

After the mortgage, in which we provided all documents confirming income, no additional certificates were required. They simply confirmed their consent to receive the card and within a week, it seems, they received it from the bank.

If you have a good credit history, you will most likely be approved for this card too.

Interest on credit card

If you have a personal offer - 21.9%

In other cases higher.

Increased bonuses

Let's move on to the sweetest part - increased bonuses for purchases.

If you have ever had a Sber card no later than 10 years, then you have heard about bonuses. They are awarded per purchase. 0.5% from each purchase.

This card has increased bonuses for some categories of purchases. You can get up to 10% bonuses.

10% bonuses - when paying at a gas station, Yandex Taxi and Gett taxi
5% - when paying in cafes and restaurants
1.5% - in supermarkets

What other privileges?

Access to the VIP lounge at Sheremetyevo for 1,500 rubles.

It’s already better at some airports in European cities - free access to the VIP lounge: Vienna, Prague, etc.

That’s all, alas) I haven’t found any more “platinum” for myself yet)

There are also discounts in different stores. You can see all the discounts on the website, but they only work when you enter a code on the seller’s website or if you tell the seller a special code. That is, there will be no automatic discount if you pay by card. From less well-known stores, I saw a discount in Rendezvous, Body Shop and Shokoladnitsa. But all promotions are temporary. That is, in order to use them you need to constantly monitor the list of promotions, remember the codes and call them on time)

All the most delicious bonuses on the card Visa Signature. If we ever choose a platinum card again, we'll take it. There are a lot of “goodies” there.

Is the cost of service worth it?

In our family, yes, it pays off. Now we only use this card. My husband linked his card to Apple Pay and pays with his phone, and I go with his card and pay with it. I have already abandoned my card.

Now let's get into my wallet))

May 2018

Consumption 86,810 Rubles


Bonuses received - 1920.32 rubles

Attention! You will receive bonuses only for every 100 rubles of expenses. SberBank rounds down.

That is, if the purchase was for 80 rubles, then you will not receive ANYTHING! Muhaha!

4900 maintenance per year divided by 12 months = 409 bonuses per month must be received in order for the card maintenance to pay off

409 bonuses per month = about 30,000 rubles only in supermarkets | about 4,000 rubles only at gas stations | about 4,000 rubles only on trips to Yandex or Gett Taxi | About 8,500 rubles only in a cafe

If any of the above suits you, then the card will at least pay for itself. For a family, even without children, with 1 car, shopping in supermarkets, and maybe sometimes taking a taxi, the card will definitely be beneficial.

This card even brings us income. Credit card with income)

How many bonuses did we earn in a year?

I wanted to see statistics on bonuses for the year, but the data is stored only for 2 months, it turns out.

I collected statistics from Ozone.

Since July last year, 12,715 bonuses have been spent.

As of today, there are 5564.53 bonus rubles left.


It was not possible to restore the write-off of bonus points at Burger King, so maybe there were more.

It turns out that we earned at least 18,279 bonus rubles in almost a year.

The card paid for itself almost 4 times!

Of course, not everyone will find it convenient, but you can only spend bonuses with partners or on Sberbank services, but it suits us.

We usually spend bonuses on Ozone, at Burger King.

What about loans?

Do not think that I encourage everyone to use credit funds and pay interest to the bank. Not at all. We return money within the grace period. They only went “on credit” when they bought equipment within 1 month and went on vacation. Only then was the card used as a credit card)

For those who don’t know, you can use a credit card without interest if you repay the money within the grace period.

I believe that you can pay the bank to use something right here and right now, rather than saving for a few more months/years. This is the choice of everyone. For me at that time, debts were less significant than not taking advantage of the vacation that fell in the summer, or living in an apartment without furniture and equipment, in bags and boxes.

I do not recommend taking out loans spontaneously. Even before you apply for a loan or credit card, you should know what you will have to pay and how long it will take to pay off your debt.
Loans are addictive!) Be careful!

The interest rate if you borrow money is quite high - 22%. It’s easier to get a consumer loan for the required amount if it’s “not on fire.” The interest rate on consumer loans is now about 15%, which is much more profitable.

Credit cards have higher interest rates because they are mobile. You don't need to apply every time - use it when you need it.

If you are an ardent opponent of credit cards, then try ordering a debit card with the same increased bonuses and you will be happy.
Conclusion

The card really gives increased bonuses, no deception.
But Sberbank is not unique here.

I know that a year ago AlfaBank had the same card, but the service was 1000 rubles cheaper.

Cards from Tinkoff Bank also have increased cashback for some categories.

Study carefully and choose the best card for yourself.

High incomes and considerable monthly expenses will allow you to pay attention to one of the varieties of premium plastic. The special black card of Sberbank is designed for wealthy people, it includes very profitable options and numerous bonuses associated with the current program and payment system.

Advantages of the Sberbank black card

According to its conditions, cost of service and restrictions, the black edition is not much different from the platinum. The difference lies in one important point. Black plastic from Visa will allow you to participate in the lending program; platinum applies to debit cards.

  1. The potential owner receives a tempting special bank offer.
  2. The cost of servicing is not considered too high for the segment; early repayment is allowed in the absence of hidden fees.
  3. The bonus program includes the highest rates, especially for non-cash payments.
  4. Additional privileges are provided: discounts, accumulation of miles and bonuses, provision of medical and legal assistance.
  5. Mobile banking services and urgent reissue in case of loss abroad are provided free of charge.
  6. The accumulated points are used to purchase various tickets, pay for taxi trips and goods in the partner network.

General characteristics

Studying the basic conditions will help you evaluate the benefits of black edition. Among them are:

  • benefits for air travel and visiting airports, including a 20 percent discount on transfers and a refund of 600 euros in case of flight cancellation or delay.

Receiving bonuses

  • raise the bar to 5 percent by visiting a restaurant or cafe;

The transport world mastercard guarantees the gradual accumulation of miles. They are usually exchanged for air tickets. The implemented chip will allow you to use contactless technology when paying if the amount does not exceed 1000 rubles.

Accumulation of bonuses

Regular trips around Russia and abroad or the habit of spending considerable sums every month while shopping lead to the need for choice. Conditions and lending programs are studied in your personal account.

A black credit card is selected that meets the requirements put forward. An application is submitted, an agreement is signed and the annual package is paid. Manufacturing will take up to 2 weeks.

Activation and participation in the bonus program occur virtually simultaneously after the first payment and registration procedure. All you need to do is receive an SMS and enter the code.

How to apply?

The impetus for the registration procedure can be a message sent to the phone or to your personal account. The offer is made in the office during the visit. The answer is given personally, with a click and a reply message.

You are allowed to submit your application through your account. The requirements are studied and the card registration button is pressed. It’s a little easier for regular clients and salary project participants; they won’t need an income statement.

A positive decision will allow you to sign the agreement and wait to receive the card in your hands. Manufacturing takes from 10 to 14 days, but it is better to monitor this process.

Set of client side requirements

The potential owner of a black edition must meet a number of established criteria. These include:

  • availability of a passport certifying Russian citizenship and a stamp of permanent or temporary registration;
  • reaching the age of 21 and up to 65 years inclusive;
  • official work experience of at least six months (you must work for one year over a five-year period);

All that remains is to register in the bonus program and immediately use the due discounts and benefits. Especially when constantly visiting members of the affiliate network.

Promotions and special offers

It is better for new clients to immediately register an account and connect the mobile application. Premium plastic is exempt from monthly payment. You just need to pay for the package of services.

Information about discounts and special offers will constantly appear on your account pages or arrive in the form of SMS to the smartphone linked to the card. It will not be superfluous to subscribe, which allows you to set up an email newsletter. Additionally, they install applications from partners.

Terms of use and interest

Terms of use are typical for the premium segment. It is enough to pay 4,900 rubles for the package and actively use the credit card at your discretion for three years.

The special offer indicates the inclusion of a rate of 21.9 percent. Other clients will be able to count on 25.9. In this case, the penalty will lead to an increase and increase to 36 percent per annum.

Cashing out at self-service devices threatens to include a rate of 3 to 4 percent (starting from 390 rubles). Using third party ATMs will result in an additional fee.

The credit limit starts at 600 thousand and grows to 3 million rubles. You will be able to receive no more than 100,000 rubles in cash at the terminal per day. The office cash desk will be able to give out up to 300 thousand rubles.

All banking products operate on the basis of payment systems (PS). Those, in turn, begin to divide into classes. The privileges, pros and cons that the payment system provides, as well as the cost of annual service depend on the class level of the bank card.

In this article we will talk about the Mastercard Black Edition product. The black card belongs to the highest class - “Premium” with exclusive offers from PS. The privileged group also includes Platinum, plastic Infinite and World Elite.

Terms of receipt and use

At this time, banks do not impose strict conditions. Since if an ordinary client takes it, the bank will receive benefits from expensive services. So it’s not worth buying it and registering it only “for antlers.”

Bottom line

Let's take a look at the black products of different banks. You may notice that the conditions offered by credit institutions are not so heavenly. It is worth paying attention to cards with income programs. They will allow you to accumulate money with a residual balance. Funds flow in monthly in the equivalent of annual interest.

The black Sberbank card elegantly complements its owner's wallet and other accessories. Its maintenance costs an order of magnitude more than classic and gold products.

This plastic opens up additional possibilities.

Who is this product beneficial for? For everyone who pays by card monthly from 3,600 rubles in supermarkets and the same amount at gas stations.

Cashback from the indicated amounts fully covers the cost of annual service. Everything spent above that brings net profit.

Let's figure out how clients can get the most out of a black credit card. What exactly makes it premium?

Description of the card class

All Sberbank plastic can be divided into 3 types:

  • Standard;
  • Gold;
  • Premium.

There are 3 levels in the premium segment:

  • Platinum;
  • Signature/World Black Edition;
  • Infinite/World Elite.

From the bank's perspective, the differences in service between Platinum and Signature/Black Edition are minimal. The fundamental difference is that platinum cards are classified as debit cards, while the latter are classified as credit cards.

However, payment systems offer holders of such credit cards a number of additional opportunities comparable to the elite level:

PlatinumSignature/Black EditionInfinite/World Elite
Cost of annual maintenance, rub.4900 30000 / 70000
Cash withdrawal limitsDaily allowance, monthlyThe only limit is 30 million rubles. per month.

Gas station, taxi10% -
Cafes and restaurants5% 10%
Supermarkets1,5% 5%
Travel PrivilegesDiscounts at airports (luggage packing, car rental, etc.)In addition to the benefits of a platinum card, MasterCard provides access to airport business lounges (not available everywhere);
on the Visa side - extended insurance for those traveling abroad.
Concierge serviceNot included in priceVisa has it

Sberbank offers Visa Signature and MasterCard Black Edition cardholders the same service:

  • cashless payment in stores in all countries;
  • payment of utility bills, taxes, fines, cellular communications and others;
  • withdrawing cash from an ATM with a commission;
  • accrual of increased cashback Thank you;
  • remote access to accounts.

The difference between the two products is not noticeable in everyday life, but it is there. Especially noticeable when traveling.

Visa Signature


The payment system provides the following opportunities for its Signature holders:

  • 24-hour technical support in all countries, including emergency production and delivery of plastic in case of loss or damage;
  • medical assistance, information support abroad;
  • doubling the warranty period for goods purchased under a Visa, provided their value is over $50 and there is a manufacturer’s warranty of 1 year;
  • extended risk insurance when traveling abroad;
  • 24-hour concierge who, at the client’s request, books tickets, tables in restaurants and other services;
  • free admission to cultural events, entry to which is available only to premium Visa holders;
  • discounts and other privileges on goods and services of numerous Visa partners, including shops, entertainment venues, hotels, and transport services.

The Sberbank Visa Signature card is especially popular among travelers because of its insurance. Annual maintenance of plastic has a comparable cost to a policy of a similar level.

Aeroflot

For those who travel frequently, co-branding is beneficial.

It is available in both credit and debit versions.

Let's compare them with a regular Sberbank status card:NameSignature Aeroflot
SignatureDebit
Credit12000 4900
Maintenance cost per year, rub.2500 Additional Visa, rub./year
Not issuedCurrencyRuble, US dollar, euro

300 thousandCashbackOnly miles that are spent at special internal rates for goods and services of Aeroflot and its partners.

"Spasibo", the exchange rate of which is equal to the ruble, is accepted by Sberbank partners

  • Co-branded cards offer holders the following services:
  • cashless payment;
  • withdrawing cash from an ATM (from a credit card with a commission);
  • Visa privileges (medical assistance, insurance abroad, concierge, partner discounts, double guarantee, creative weekends);

profitable cashback accrual by the carrier.


Aeroflot premium Visas earn 2 miles for every 60 rubles spent when paying with plastic.

Example for clarity:

An economy class ticket from Moscow to Vienna costs 12,500 miles when purchased 2 weeks in advance, with an additional fee of approximately 3,800 rubles. The same ticket, when paid in cash, costs 13,103 rubles. 437 miles will be credited for the purchase (13103/60*2=436.77). If a passenger pays the same amount with a non-co-branded premium card connected to Thank You bonuses, he will receive 0.5% cashback = 65.5 rubles. for the same ticket.

  • There is no conversion rate for miles into rubles, but the example is clear, and conclusions can be drawn from it:
  • The cost of the ticket minus fees is approximately 9,300 rubles. (13103-3800=9303);
  • 1 ruble corresponds to less than 1.5 miles (12500/9300=1.34);

bonuses in miles are significantly higher than Thank You points (437 miles / 1.34 miles = 326 rubles, which is almost 5 times more than 65.5 rubles that would have been awarded under the Thank You program).

Aeroflot cashback is highly attractive for regular passengers. At the same time, it has specific liquidity; it can only be spent on goods and services that are closely related to air travel and tourism. There are some restrictions, for example on roundtrip flights.

MasterCard World Black Edition

  • technical support 24/7 all over the world;
  • incentives in the form of discounts on purchases in stores, cafes, and entertainment venues;
  • attractive cashback from MasterCard Rewards, which can be exchanged at a favorable rate for certificates from chain stores, as well as for exclusive products presented on the program website.


Debit

MasterCard World Black Edition and Visa Signature are issued by Sberbank only in the form of credit cards. A brief description of alternatives among debit cards:

  • Visa Signature Aeroflot – service 12 thousand rubles annually;

Profitable cashback for frequent fliers;
— unjustified costs for infrequent travelers;

  • Platinum Visa and MasterCard - the cost of service is the same 4900 rubles per year;

Plastic allows you to withdraw cash from an ATM without commission up to 500 thousand rubles. per day;

No commissions, the only limit is cash withdrawal of 30 million rubles. per month;

Credit

Black credit cards at Sberbank are issued on an individual basis for existing clients with a positive history, as well as on a mass basis for those applying for the first time.

The main difference concerns the size of the loan rate. For a pre-approved card it is 21.9% per annum, on a general basis - 25.9%.

The credit limit is considered individually, the maximum amount is 3 million rubles. However, other things being equal, existing customers receive an offer with a higher amount.

Conditions

Let's summarize what was described above:
