How to Buy International Flight Tickets on Skyscanner or Aviasales from Russia

Online flight booking becomes an impossible task for users from certain regions. Payment systems reject bank cards. Cryptocurrency holders cannot use their digital assets to purchase tickets.

There is a solution — Heleket virtual card. You top up your account with cryptocurrency — the system automatically converts it to dollars. Pay for online services like a standard Visa, bypassing intermediaries and hidden fees.

Comparison with Other Payment Methods

Bank cards. Require opening a bank account. Often don't work for international payments. Get blocked when trying to pay for foreign services.

Other virtual cards. Often require document verification. Inflated fees for account top-up. Not accepted by all platforms.

PayPal and payment systems. Require linking a bank card. Geographic restrictions apply. Additional fees charged for currency conversion.

Heleket advantages:

• Card issued within minutes
• Top-up via cryptocurrency
• Works for all international subscriptions
