I use a bundle of paypal + visa card in a Moldovan bank
, I withdraw to paypal, from it to a card - withdrawal from paypal to a card is $ 5, depending on the amount

Answer 3

usually the Baltics, now almost always Latvia, less often Estonia, Lithuania is generally difficult,
less often the Czech Republic, Switzerland
all this is not always cheap, up to the requirements of a non-withdrawable deposit, pluses - cards without a name are possible
in this regard Pioneer is easier

Payoneer is everything. Cheaper, easier and safer. Somehow I don’t want to pay $ 30 +% plus some interest on conversion, plus you should receive this money ...

Answer 5

In Thailand you can open
In Hong Kong
In Singapore

Answer 6

Opening an account in the states is easy. True, only in person.
Another thing is that in the Russian Federation it is not very legal 8-) or rather, it is necessary to notify the tax office. And receiving money on this account is also a gray topic ...
But technically, there are no problems.
If we are talking about specific banks, then from the friendly ones I will note Chase and BofA, on the contrary - Citibank.

"The theme is grey".... that's putting it mildly. If you have a domestic passport and visit Russia at least once a year, then you are already a currency resident. After that, open an account anywhere, even in Madagascar (preferably in OECD or FATF member countries). But there should not be such incomes to such accounts, or this is an illegal currency transaction. If money was thrown into your account and you spent it on your own or someone else's needs, then the penalty for income is from 75% to 100%, the penalty for spending is the same. Total for the circle 150-200% of the incoming amount.
