Which banks in Tbilisi accept Zolotaya Korona (Russian money transfer system) cash pickups?

Credo Bank used to accept Zolotaya Korona top-ups a month earlier, but as of early August 2026 the transfers stopped going through.

The disruptions are linked to sanctions on specific Russian banks (e.g. Yandex Bank, Ozon Bank) commonly used to fund transfers, not to a ban on the Zolotaya Korona system itself.

Raiffeisen Bank in Tbilisi remained one of the few banks where Zolotaya Korona transfers were still going through as of late July 2026.

There's confusion about whether Zolotaya Korona transfers can be picked up directly at an ATM — banks haven't confirmed this clearly, and usually you need to visit a branch with your passport.

TBC Bank refused to pay out a Zolotaya Korona transfer in early July 2026 — travelers were looking for alternative banks.

As of late June 2026, Liberty Bank was still reliably paying out cash for Zolotaya Korona transfers.
