Yes, Belarusian bank cards generally work throughout Batumi and Georgia — the main exceptions are the Wolt and Bolt apps, which reject them. Glovo delivery and most shops/taxis accept them fine.
What the community said
As of 2026, Belarusian bank cards are accepted almost everywhere in Georgia based on traveler experience, with two notable exceptions — the Wolt and Bolt apps, where card payment fails. This usually isn't a dealbreaker since there are alternatives.
