Sberbank Online is a practical and capable app that helps Sberbank customers manage accounts, make payments, and track finances in real time. This guide explains how to install Sberbank Online on a mobile device and start enjoying all the app’s benefits.
Installing the Sberbank Online app on Android
There are several ways to add the app to Android phones.
Installation via the official Sberbank website
Install the Android version from the official site by following these steps:
- Open the official Sberbank internet resource.
- Tap Download for Android.
- Install the latest Sberbank Online version on the device.
- Run the installer and allow installation from unknown sources.
Installation via alternative stores
Because of sanctions, many Sberbank apps may not appear in Play Market. Alternative stores such as AppGallery, Galaxy Store, GetApps, and RuStore can still be used to obtain the app.
How it works:
- Install the store app.
- Search for “Sberbank online.”
- Download and install the application.
Installing the Sberbank Online app on iOS
If the app was blocked in the App Store but was previously installed, it will continue to function without needing an update. When installing on iOS, several important factors should be considered.
Install the app through a bank branch
The bank offers a service to install Sberbank Online on iPhones at a branch. A customer can visit in person to request this service, or arrange a free in-person visit from a manager who can assist with the installation at a convenient time. More information is available in the bank’s guidance.
Recovering a deleted app or transferring from another device
If Sberbank Online was used on a prior iPhone, the app remains in the Apple Library. To move it to a new iPhone, connect the new device to the old Apple ID and download the app again. For first-time users or those without access to the old Apple ID, a trusted source with the app can help copy it. An alternative method involves using a practical program to transfer the app between devices, which can work even without the original Apple ID.
- Download and install a desktop utility for iOS transfer on the computer, available here for iOS and Windows in Russian. The tool facilitates data transfer between devices; the free version is often sufficient.
Launch the tool on the computer and connect the iPhone via USB, then follow the onscreen prompts to copy the app from the relevant device.
- When transferring from an older device using an Apple ID, allow the PC to access files by selecting Trust on the connected device.
- Through the tool, you may be prompted to create a backup; if not needed, opt to skip backing up.
- If backup is declined, navigate to Manage Applications and choose the Sberbank Online app.
If the transfer is from another device, repeat the steps with the source device connected first. Allow the backup, then use Quick Transfer within the tool to download the required app.
Web version of Sberbank Online
Alternatively, the web version of Sberbank Online can be accessed via a mobile browser. It provides the same capabilities as the mobile app, including money management, balance checks, service payments, transfers, and deposits, all accessible over the internet. The web option is accessible here. (VG Times)[Citation]
