Despite the restrictions, Apple still remains in the Russian market and does not even increase prices for its services. Right now, subscriptions to Apple Music, iCloud+, Apple TV+ and more are the cheapest in the world. Therefore, it makes sense for us in the Russian regions.
Payment was more difficult, but it is still possible and not as difficult as it seems.
You just need to connect the payment to your mobile phone. Yes, only Beeline or MTS SIM cards are suitable, but even if you don’t have one, you can also top up your account through its owner.
In the video and below the text will talk about both passages to complete the App Store. The first is for those with suitable operators, the second for everyone else.

How to top up your App Store
The instructions consist of three steps:
1. Activate payment via mobile Apple ID
2. Top up balance
3. Pay for your purchase/replenish your App Store wallet.
From what is necessary. You will need a SIM card Beeline or MTS, issued by you. If it is tied to someone else’s name, this may not work, but in any case it will still comply with the instructions below. In case of an error, read more here.

Step 1. Add payment number
Open Settings > Click on Apple ID profile top right > Click Payment and delivery >Later Add a payment method > Select an item Mobile phone.
Enter your number > Click Ready > Enter the code from SMS > Press Send.
Ready! Now the number will be displayed in the section Payment and delivery. While there, press Change and drag this method to the top list.
Step 2. Fill in mobile
Fill in any available number convenient for you, which was linked only to the Apple ID.
Please note that your account must have a larger amount of 50 rubles, with which you ultimately want to top up your Apple ID wallet or make a purchase in the App Store. This is not a commission, a simple rule, otherwise it may not work. The money will remain on your balance.
We’re almost done!


Step 3: Complete your Apple ID wallet or regular purchase.
Now you can safely make purchases in the App Store and pay for subscriptions.
If you want to be on the safe side and top up your Apple ID balance, follow the instructions:
Open App Store > Click on Apple ID profile up right > Click Top up your Apple ID account.
Select pattern or size click Another and enter the amount from 300 rubles > Click Further > Confirm your top-up as you would with a regular purchase on the App Store.
Ready! The account is now complete, and if you lose access to the featured image, the money will be taken directly from your Apple ID.
The same method will help if there is no SIM card when returning.
