How to send money transfers from abroad to a Georgian bank card in Batumi (Unired, Multitransfer)?

TL;DR

Services like Unired and Multitransfer work unreliably: transfers to TBC and Kredobank cards are often blocked or fail with errors, so send a small test transfer before a large one.

What the community said

Transfers via Unired to TBC bank cards stopped working — the system shows an error that this card type isn't supported, even though it worked fine before.

Unired → TBC card: error

Over two days, no transfer went through: Ozon Bank first blocked the transaction as suspicious (later unblocked), and the Multitransfer service kept returning errors when trying to send money.

Multitransfer / Ozon Bank: failures

When transferring via Unired to a Kredobank card, the first test transfer arrived instantly (within a minute), but the second one to the same card got stuck. Unired support said this bank's Visa cards don't accept transfers, though the bank itself denies any restriction.

Unired → Kredobank Visa: unstable

Practical tip: before sending a large amount via Unired, first make a small test transfer — this helps check whether that specific service-bank-card combination is working at the moment.
