It has become easier for pensioners to get a discount using the MAX messenger

11 March 2026, Wednesday

Now, in order to receive a discount, pensioners in stores do not have to have a paper pension certificate with them. 

It is enough to present the QR code from the "Digital ID" section in the national messenger MAX. An electronic certificate has the same legal force as a paper document. Payment by QR code is available at self-service cash desks in the stores of the Perekrestok and Pyaterochka chains.

In order to get a discount, you need to scan all the products at the self-service checkout and proceed to the payment stage. After that, click "Discounts for pensioners and others" on the screen, and then select "Discount for pensioners". In the MAX messenger, go to the "Digital ID" section and click the "Show ID" button. At the end, it is necessary to bring the QR code that appears to the reader at the checkout.

Let us recall that "Digital ID" is a function that allows you to store and present electronic versions of documents that are equivalent to paper originals. The new service makes the process of obtaining benefits more convenient and modern, eliminating the need to carry paper documents with you.
