Banks in Russia are far ahead the rest of the world. The software and UX is the best I saw in any country. Fast payment system, next-day card delivery, opening and closing cards and accounts without lifting your butt off the chair etc.
Have been norm in Latvia for decades. Opened my first bank account in 2002, don't event know how it is to not have internet banking (switched my first bank in a few months because they didn't support Linux browsers back then and their support said they don't care) or how to write cheque. And right now attending bank branch physically is something very rare, you even need to schedule time before, as everything happens online.
