It is very difficult to say how many branches of banks and other financial institutions around the world are connected to the system.

Tariffs and currencies
“Contact” money transfers are sent and issued in three currencies - Euros, US dollars and Russian rubles. As you can see, almost all major world currencies are used in the system, with the exception of pounds sterling and the Japanese yen. Note that transfers in rubles are accepted only if the transfer is sent to the CIS.
We will also talk about the tariffs that are applied in the system. The commission when sending money ranges from 1.2 to 1.5% of the amount. Moreover, the commission when sending money from Azerbaijan to Uzbekistan and other neighboring countries in rubles cannot exceed 2000 rubles. If you want to send money in rubles from Abkhazia to Latvia, you will have to pay 2%. The same percentage of the commission is set when sending to Latvia from most CIS countries.
But more often than not, people send money to non-CIS countries. In this situation, the tariff conditions are slightly different. What is the difference? Above a certain amount of the transfer, the interest rate rule applies, and up to this value there is a rule of a fixed amount of a bank deposit. Consider an example. Suppose a customer sends funds to Australia. When sending up to $ 300, the commission will be $ 10, and when sending from $ 301, it will be necessary to overpay 3%.
