If you are already familiar with cashbacks, then this will be very simple for you; if not, then everything is described in detail below.
Brief information about MTS
Public Joint Stock Company (PJSC) "Mobile TeleSystems" was created on the basis of a consortium that in 1992 took part in a competition and became the winner of a license to provide cellular communication services of the GSM-900 standard.
Now MTS PJSC is a large group of companies represented in the markets of Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Ukraine, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan.
The main owner of Mobile TeleSystems is the holding of AFK Sistema owned by Vladimir Yevtushenkov, which owns a 53.47% stake. The remaining shares are traded on stock exchanges in London, New York, Berlin, Munich, and Moscow . The British company Vodafone is a strategic partner.
MTS PJSC provides the following services:
- cellular communications of GSM, 3G, 4G standards for subscribers in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine and Armenia;
- APN, VPA, telephone answering machines and others for corporate clients;
- wired telephony through, where Mobile TeleSystems acts as the main shareholder;
- wired Internet for individuals and legal entities in Russia;
- Mobile Internet;
- cable, satellite and mobile television.
In addition to the above, it is developing its own network of retail stores selling mobile equipment on the Russian market. In the spring of 2018, the network consisted of 5.7 thousand communication stores . In branded stores you can purchase mobile devices from the brands Honor, Samsung, Apple, Xiaomi, Huawei, Asus, Nokia and others.
The domain shop.mts.ru operates a branded online store that allows you to purchase smartphones, tablets, quadcopters, smart watches, fitness bracelets and other equipment online.
How cashback works in MTS
A year ago, a service for receiving MTS cashback for purchases made in partner online stores appeared on the website cashback.mts.ru. Currently, 670 retail outlets are connected to the system , including such well-known platforms as Aliexpress, Booking, Eldorado, Sportmaster, Citylink, Aviasales, Biglion, iHerb and others.
Available refund rates are shown on each store card. This can be either a percentage of the purchase price or some fixed amount.
To receive MTS cashback, the user must complete the following steps:
- Register on the cashback.mts.ru site or in the corresponding mobile application.
- Go to the catalog of partner stores.
- Select the desired trading platform.
- Use the special button to go to the online store website.
- Decide on the product and place it in the cart.
- Place an order and pay for it in any convenient way.
The difference from the standard understanding of cashback, as interpreted using the example of Secret Discounter, LetyShops and other similar services, is that the money is accumulated in a special account in the form of a separate discount . Then it either goes to replenish your mobile phone number (at the beginning of each month), or, after accumulating the required number of bonuses, to purchase a smartphone in chain stores .
The period for accrual of cash back from MTS takes up to 90 days. The disadvantage is that the resource does not display enrollment history . Therefore, after a purchase, it is not clear to the client whether the transition to the online store was counted and whether he should expect a refund.
The confirmation period is sooooo long. Not every user will remember after 90 days what he bought and for how much. Since history is not provided, tracking cashback is quite problematic .
In the future, the developers are going to eliminate the shortcoming with the cashback accrual list. At least, this is what technical support says in response to user requests. But when this will be done is not announced.
Money will be credited to your account when the store confirms the purchase. The client will be notified by receiving an SMS.
There is one more nuance - cashback in MTS is reduced or increased to whole numbers according to rounding rules. That is, an amount of 1.3 rubles is rounded up to 1 ruble, for a cash back of 1.8 rubles they will pay 2 rubles. It follows that cashbacks up to 0.5 rubles are not paid.
Answers to the most common questions
Often, even at the stage of deciding to connect to MTS Cashback, a potential client has certain questions about this program - how to apply for a card without Russian citizenship, how to check the number of cashback bonuses, look at spending information, etc.
Let's take a closer look at the most common questions and try to answer them comprehensively. Can a foreigner get an MTS Cashback card?
Only Russian citizens can apply for an MTS Cashback card; this credit product is not available to citizens of other countries.
In what currency is the card issued?
The universal MTS Cashback card can be issued only in Russian rubles. There is no possibility to denominate it in other currencies.
How many MTS Cashback cards can you issue?
According to banking rules, an individual is allowed to issue no more than one MTS Cashback card.
Is it possible to issue an additional card?
Such a design is impossible. A client is allowed to use only one universal MTS Cashback card.
Cost of card maintenance
Servicing the MTS Cashback card is free. Only a bank commission may be charged for certain types of transactions, for example, for cashing out credit funds. In addition, some connected services, such as SMS notifications, are paid.
The SMS notification service, as well as the insurance program, can be disabled if desired through the bank's support service.
How to add a card to Google Pay or Samsung Pay
This card supports payment technologies via smartphone, such as Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay, Mir Pay. You can add it to these services in the same way as other bank cards. The easiest way is to go to any of these services and enter the required details. After this, you can pay for the service or product using your smartphone.
How the card is topped up
MTS Cashback can be replenished through ATMs and cash desks of MTS Bank, as well as by transferring funds from another bank card from any bank. In these cases, no commission is charged for such an operation. If the replenishment was made from the account of a legal entity or individual entrepreneur, then the bank commission will be 5% of the size of the monetary transaction.
Is there a loyalty program for the MTS Cashback card?
Actually, the accrual of bonus points is considered as a loyalty program. In addition, when purchasing from some bank partners, the cashback amount reaches 25%, and for some services of the MTS telecom operator, a cashback of 50% is awarded.
How soon will bonuses for purchases from MTS Cashback partners be credited?
Cashback is credited only after confirmation of the purchase made or payment for the service from the partner store or service. The confirmation period may vary for different banking partners. Sometimes it takes a day or two, sometimes confirmation can take months. The deadline for enrollment is 90 days.
Are there any restrictions on the amount of cashback bonuses awarded?
Cashback amount is limited. No more than ten thousand bonuses can be awarded per month, which corresponds to 10 thousand rubles. The accrual of bonuses above this limit will cease until the end of the current month.
Goals set when registering for MTS Cashback
Users (non-corporate) of communication services of the MTS operator who register in the MTS Cashback program are automatically assigned the goal “Payment for mobile communications”. For other clients, a “Discount Certificate” is issued. These settings can be changed. It is possible to set several goals at the same time.
How to find out about the accrual of cashback bonuses
The client is informed about this via SMS. In addition, such information can be obtained by visiting your personal account or using the MTS Cashback mobile application.
How can I end my participation in the MTC Cashback program?
To exit this program, you can use your personal account or the MTC Cashback mobile application. Well, the easiest way is to stop using the MTS Cashback credit card. This card is free of charge and will expire after a while. Of course, you need to make sure that the loan funds have not been spent previously, and if a debt has arisen, then pay it off.
What will happen to the accumulated cashback after leaving the MTC Cashback program
After the client’s participation in the program is completed, the accumulated bonuses will be used for a discount in the certificate for the purchase of a smartphone at an MTS store. In this case, the certificate data will be listed in a letter that will be sent by email to the address indicated by the client at the stage of registration in the program. If an email address was not specified during registration, this means that all bonuses will be lost forever.
Catalog of stores on the Cashback.MTS site
The website states that the platform already includes 670 services and online stores. Of these, 5 belong to MTS itself.
As with most other resources that provide cashback, the catalog with trading platforms is divided into categories depending on the purpose of the goods or services. The following categories are distinguished:
- online stores (groceries, cosmetics, household appliances and electronics, car parts, gifts, health products, books, pet supplies, etc.);
- entertainment and leisure (tickets for concerts, performances and other events, coupons, books);
- services and services in medicine, transport, insurance, flower and food delivery, coupon services;
- travel (ordering air, train and bus tickets, booking tours and hotels);
- booking restaurants with different types of cuisine. The presence of such a service with cashback makes it stand out among other similar platforms;
- offline retail stores;
- MTS services (GOOD'OK, Music, TV, branded online store).
Online stores with increased cashback are included in a separate category.
Let's compare rates for some online stores with other cashback sites. Since each platform has its own options for increasing rates, for the sake of objectivity we will take only those trading platforms where increasing coefficients are not used. The results are shown in the table.

As you can see, the rates are approximately the same in comparison with other cashback services. But there is a significant difference: if you are a subscriber of another mobile operator, cashback from MTS is a priori unavailable to you (see footnote below).
We remind you for those who are looking for how to withdraw money from MTS cashback that this resource only allows you to accumulate points and use them to top up your mobile number or buy a smartphone. Real money is not credited or withdrawn . This is what distinguishes the platform from other cashback services.
Installing the application

For the iOS operating system, the corresponding application is downloaded from the App Store. Installs on iPod touch, iPad and iPhone. Requirement for iOS is version 9.2 and later.
How to transfer MTS cashback to a card
Many people are interested in the question of how to withdraw accrued money to a card or using electronic payment systems. The answer is simple and not very reassuring - no way . The program from the leader of the telecommunications market does not provide for the withdrawal of money from its system . Only 2 options :
- mobile phone number replenishment;
- accumulation of funds and subsequent purchase of a phone in a company store.
All accounts are linked to an MTS number. Cashback on purchases from corporate numbers can only be used for smartphone purchases . This goal is set by default in your account after registration.
Individuals can set different savings goals . By default, the task is to accumulate funds to replenish the main number. At the same time, you can specify the numbers of family members or friends, where money will also be transferred. It is also possible to purchase a smartphone. Each goal has a limit and priority. When one task is completed, cashback will begin to accumulate towards another goal.
is not withdrawn to any bank card . Electronic payment systems are also not available.
Cashback in MTS from offline stores
In December last year, the cashback resource from MTS conducted an experimental campaign to return money from purchases in offline stores. This function has already been implemented in the Edadil application, which we wrote about in the previous article.
The following retail outlets and manufacturers were selected for the promotion:
- Econika stores in Novosibirsk, Barnaul, Surgut and Magnitogorsk. For a purchase amount of 5 thousand rubles or more, the client can return 7% to the account in the application;
- Lego brand stores in the Northern capital. Returned 10% for purchasing a Lego City set;
- all offline stores of the Perekrestok chain, for the purchase of Exo ice cream in which it was possible to return 15% of the purchase price.
More promotions are expected in the future.
To successfully receive cashback for an offline purchase, you must:
- Find in the service catalog the product or store where the information is posted.
- Visit a retail outlet, purchase a promotional item and pick up a cash receipt.
- Place the check in a well-lit place in a vertical or horizontal position.
- In the MTC Cashback mobile application for iOS or Android, click the QR code scanner button.
- Using your smartphone camera, scan the code on the receipt.
If the receipt is undamaged, scanning will occur automatically. Verification takes up to 30 days. If the purchase of promotional items is confirmed, cash back will be transferred to the user’s account. A store receipt can only be used once.
Installment plans and cashback from MTS: pitfalls
Despite the apparent simplicity and transparency of the transaction, difficulties may arise that the company, naturally, will not immediately disclose and they become known thanks to vigilant experienced buyers. First of all, it is worth considering the advantages of this program:
- time frame from choosing a smartphone to receiving cashback and installment plans
- lack of a large list of required documents
- the opportunity to submit applications to various organizations cooperating with MTS. Therefore, increase the chances of approval
- if your credit history was previously damaged for some reason, then there is no need to worry, it is not a key factor in making a decision
- availability of preferential terms for a certain category of clients
How to use MTS cashback to buy a new phone
If there is sufficient accumulation of funds in the personal account that are accrued for purchases made, the client has the opportunity to issue a certificate for the purchase of a new smartphone in the branded stores of the mobile operator. To do this, just make an application in the application or program, after which you will receive an SMS with an MTS cashback promotional code .
During the purchase process, just show the promotional code in your phone to the seller. Using a certificate, you can pay up to 100% of the cost of a new smartphone , with the exception of 1 ruble, which you still have to pay at the checkout (but this is more of a legislative problem).
When filling out an application, you can order only one certificate for a smartphone at a time, although their number is not limited during the entire period of using the service. You must use the promotional code one time. Therefore, it is worth choosing a mobile device that will be as close as possible to the certificate’s value. Only one certificate can be used for one smartphone.
The denominations of the certificates are as follows:
- 100 and 500 rubles;
- from 1000 to 3000 rubles in increments of 1000 rubles;
- from 5,000 to 30,000 rubles in increments of 5,000 rubles;
- from 40,000 to 80,000 rubles in increments of 10,000 rubles.
Once the certificate is issued, it can be transferred or gifted to someone else.
How to change the purpose for writing off cashback?
Authorized users can change or add a goal at any moment through their Personal Account on the website or in the application. To do this, you will need to go to the “My Cashback” tab.
We have already said that MTS subscribers have a priority of paying their mobile bill, while non-subscribers have a priority of purchasing a discount certificate for a phone or other device. Let's see how they can be changed or combined.
At least one goal must always be present. To change it, you need to add a new goal. In our case, this is replenishing the MTS account of friends or relatives.
You will be asked to indicate which number you want to deposit and then the maximum amount to withdraw:
You can now complete two goals or remove an unnecessary goal.
Note
: There can be only one goal “Buying a smartphone”, but “Replenishing MTS balance” can have several.
Please note that cashback is credited to your account on the 1st for the entire previous month and at the same time is automatically debited for the established goals. This is why you need balance replenishment limits - they can always be changed.
MTS cashback referral program
In the period from July 4, 2021 to July 3, 2021 (the period may be extended later), the mobile operator, in order to attract more attention to its resource, is holding a campaign to invite friends . a promotional code from MTS cashback in their personal account This code can be shared with friends and acquaintances.
As soon as a new user registers in the service, he will become a referral of the person who invited him. The last person referred will receive 30 rubles as an incentive (but only after he makes his first purchase with cashback). In total, as we understand from the terms of the MTS affiliate program, you can only receive a reward for the first 10 invited friends , which is complete nonsense, because in other cashback services you get your % for the purchases of all your friends, always!
Also, as part of the promotion, the person who invited receives a percentage of each confirmed referral cashback. Bonuses will be credited within 24 hours after confirmation of the purchase by the online store. The user receives a notification about the referral payment in the form of SMS. You need to look at the rates inside the program.
Overall, the referral program is not very interesting. There is an expiration date and the rules do not say how the percentage will be paid on your referrals' purchases. Therefore, there are fears that after July 3, payments will stop.

Required steps to credit MTS cashback
The transition to the partner store's website is tracked using special cookies. Due to some settings, these files may not work, and the trading platform does not see where the buyer came from. As a result, if the actions are practically correct, the client will not receive cashback.
To prevent this from happening, the telecommunications company recommends adhering to the following recommendations :
- check your browser for ad blockers and, if found, disable them;
- make sure that your browser does not block cookies;
- disable browser extensions from other cashback services;
- do not make purchases in incognito browser mode;
- if you were in an online store before visiting the website cashback.mts.ru, you need to empty your cart and exit your personal account;
- make purchases within one session after going to the trading platform website;
- wait for the page to fully load if you pay for an order on the site.
The payment method does not affect the accrual of cashback. It will come both when you pay by card on the website, and in cash upon courier delivery to your home.
Reviews about MTS cashback
Evaluating reviews of MTS Cashback helps you understand how well the service works and returns money. 433 people shared their opinions on the App Store . The average score received is 3.0 . Customer dissatisfaction is caused by the lack of purchase history , which makes it difficult to track accruals.
Android owners gave it a higher rating on Google Play - an average of 3.9 . 4894 people shared their opinion. There are both positive and negative reviews. But there is still more negativity. They complain about long enrollment times or their absence at all . Many users are faced with the fact that money never arrives, and technical support makes standard unsubscribes.
There are complaints about the operation of both the application and the service through the website. Purchases are simply not identified , and accordingly no cashback is awarded. The end result is a negative user experience.
They also write that it is not possible to scan receipts . Although, in this case, it is possible that users themselves have not figured it out and are scanning receipts for promotions that have already expired.
There are also problems with referrals . When using a promotional code to register with cash back.mts.ru, users are unable to log in. After each fix, new bugs appear.
Also, cashback did not work even when purchasing subscriptions to services from MTS through the platform.
Perhaps the problems are related specifically to the operation of the application. Experienced shoppers who often use cashback services know that cashbacks are often lost through apps. The reason is that online stores are reluctant to accept cookies in such cases. A similar problem occurs with many cashback platforms.
On Otzovik, user opinions are also not in favor of the new site. Only 1 out of 22 reviews is positive . All other people faced the same problems as described above.
Disadvantages of installment services
- risks of not receiving cashback on time, which is why you can find a lot of negative reviews online
- the imposition of insurance by some employees. In such cases, people are advised to show character and not allow themselves to be pressured. If the employee continues to push the service, feel free to go to another salon
- it is necessary to pay a substantial amount under conditions of high interest rates
- lack of 100% insurance against the use of personal data by 3rd parties
- Some employees are not competent in certain issues and, instead of turning to more experienced colleagues for help, they begin to mess up the drafting of the contract. Hence, if an error occurs, the client has to waste not only nerves, but also money

The only difference is that third-party cashback services return real money . At the same time, on the site from the telecom operator, a rate of 1% is offered, and in cashback services you can find a rate of up to 2.5% .

MTS user personal account
To get your MTS cashback personal account at your disposal, follow the link cashback.mts.ru to the official website and select “My Account”. To authorize, you will need to obtain an access password. Therefore, users select the appropriately named option and see a special window. Enter your phone number, captcha and click “Next”. Then, having received the password in an SMS message, they use it to log into the account. At this point, registration is completed, and the user receives full access to all functions of the personal account.
When logging into your account using the MTS cash back mobile application, no password is required, authorization occurs automatically using your phone number.
In your personal account, you can view your account status. To do this, use the buttons located in the top block, allowing you to:
- check balance;
- top up your account with a bank card;
- activate the "Autopayment" function.

Under the account status information block there are “Service Packages”, displaying information about the volume of Internet traffic, minutes for calls, SMS messages.
To control where funds are spent in the MTS system, the Personal Account provides a “My Expenses” section. To analyze expenses, the user, using a calendar, sets a time period of up to 3 months. After this, the system displays how much money was spent and where. To assess the total amount of expenses in individual areas, the section contains a pie chart. If you hover the cursor over a segment of the circle, a tooltip will appear showing the amount of spending for the selected service category.
To study the complete payment history in detail, use the “Detailed Statistics” menu subsection. This section is also used in cases where you need to view an unsaved caller number. But to search, you will need to at least approximately remember the date of the call, otherwise it will not be easy to find useful information in the abundance of detailed data for each user action.
At the bottom there is an information block that opens access to management and allows you to independently switch to a new plan. By clicking on it, the user will see three subsections:
- for special occasions;
- for computer and tablet;
- for phone and smartphone.

The settings section allows you to:
- see who the number is registered to;
- block your SIM card if you lose your smartphone;
- link other MTS numbers to the current one, which allows you to control the costs of mobile communications of loved ones and top up the balance of their cell phones;
- view the full list of numbers linked to your passport data.
In comparison with the mobile application from MTS, the personal account is more functional, differing in that it provides:
- access to a full list of services;
- comprehensive information on tariff plans;
- a complete list of executed contracts and numbers;
- the ability to block your numbers;
- settings of SMS messages for authorization and confirmation of actions;
- the ability to send passport data to confirm the use of the number, as required by law, without personally visiting an MTS communication salon.
conclusions
Let's summarize the review. The oldest mobile operator in Russia has decided to expand its services for regular customers by creating a cashback platform. When making purchases in online stores (offline stores are gradually being added), points are returned to the user’s account. They can be used to top up your phone or purchase smartphones. Interaction is carried out through the platform in the browser or using an application.
So far, the cashback platform from MTS looks damp . Not everything suits clients. The main complaints are as follows:
- Refunds are made not in money, but in bonuses. The client cannot withdraw them to a card or wallet in an electronic payment system. Limited use suggested;
- long accrual period of 90 days, when alternative cashback services produce confirmation on average in 30-45 days;
- There is no order tracking history. Clients are notified upon enrollment via SMS. It is completely unclear how to track all purchases;
- cashbacks are lost, and technical support does not help resolve the issue;
- there are frequent crashes in the operation of applications for iOS and Android;
- From time to time, applications do not allow you to scan receipts for promotions in offline stores.
From all this the conclusion follows that the platform should be further developed. Two other offers for receiving cashback on MTS resources are well worth their use. They can be recommended now for reasonable cost savings. Well, if you need a reliable cashback service that will definitely return your money for purchases on the Internet and not only, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with our rating of the best cashback services .

A little about insurance
The cashback service, like installments, is available at any MTS branch throughout the country. Additionally, the company offers insurance services for new and old clients. The amount of insurance directly depends on the cost of the purchased phone. The accrued interest is summed up. It is important to remember that insurance should not be imposed on the client; registration takes place solely on a voluntary basis. This insurance is aimed at ensuring safety in a number of cases, in particular, theft of a gadget or its loss. After such an unpleasant story, you need to perform the following steps:
- Contact the company that owns the SIM card installed in your phone with a request to block it. The sooner this is done, the higher the chance of protecting your data.
- Come to the office where you purchase a smartphone with your passport and ask for help. It is advisable to keep the purchase receipt; if you have it, the smartphone can be replaced under insurance for the insured amount. Costs will be significantly lower, and you won’t have to worry about data security.
- Buy a new SIM card and start using the device practically as before. Some restore lost data, but in this case the security of the data on the previous device will be significantly reduced.
