Perekrestok network and how it works
What is the Perekrestok network? The first store, which is currently part of a large network, which has its own outlets in many cities and towns of the Russian Federation, was opened back in 1995. At the moment, the total sales of the chain have already reached the figure of more than 180 billion rubles, and this figure is steadily growing.

- The ability to set a democratic price for products due to purchases from direct manufacturers in large volumes;
- Application of new technologies and implementation of the world's best practices in the trading industry;

What are the benefits of the Perekrestok card holder and how are points awarded? Bonuses are credited to the card under the condition that when making a purchase, the client simultaneously provides the discount card he has - thus the amount of bonuses due for the purchase is automatically credited to the client's account. Similarly, if it is necessary to use the accumulated bonuses, such an action becomes possible upon direct presentation of the card.

- Points can be earned after presenting a purchase receipt;
- When used to pay for bonuses (in part), subsequent points will be calculated only for the part that was paid for in money (in the form of cash or non-cash settlement);
- When purchasing an assortment that relates to tobacco or tobacco products, points to the client in accordance with the prohibition of regulatory acts of the Russian Federation will not be awarded;
- When a customer purchases more than 30 pieces of the same product or more than 20 kg of the same weight product in one purchase, bonuses will not be credited to the account;
- Bonuses are not credited when purchasing certificates related to gift certificates of various forms;
- According to the terms of the network, bonuses can be credited to the client's account if in one day he has made no more than five purchases (by different checks) at one stationary outlet;
- Points are also not subject to accrual in the case of using a pension certificate to receive a discount or using a VIP card or employee discount plastic.

The Perekrestok plastic card allows you to accumulate bonuses by making purchases in the chain of stores of the same name. Having collected a sufficient number of points, a citizen will be able to spend them to pay for the purchased product. But for this, the plastic must first be registered. Registration of a bonus card can be done in one of several ways.
Getting plastic
Getting the card is pretty easy. It is necessary to contact the cashier of one of the chain stores with a corresponding request. After paying 42 rubles (membership fee), a supermarket employee will provide the citizen with a card. All plastics are initially in sealed envelopes. Together with the card, they contain a questionnaire.
You can accumulate bonuses immediately after receiving the card. Moreover, this can be done by paying for purchases at partner institutions of Perekrestok (such, for example, is Burger King). However, in order to spend the collected points, the plastic must be registered.
Registration methods
There are several ways to register the Crossroads bonus card. This requires:
- Submit the completed questionnaire received along with the card to the supermarket cashier.
- Call the hotline of a chain of stores.
- Use the official Perekrestok website.
- Use the POS mobile app.
How exactly to register is up to the cardholder. Citizens who have credit / debit plastics of such banks as CityBank, HomeCredit, Alfa-Bank and Guta-Bank can refuse to issue plastic. These financial institutions cooperate with the trading network, so their plastics can be used instead of the Perekrestok card.
Filling out a questionnaire in a supermarket
The first way to register is to fill out the form provided with the card directly in the supermarket, and then give it to the cashier. The citizen will be required to register the following information:
- residence address;
- contact details;
- data on marital status.
After filling in all the fields, the questionnaire is transferred to the cashier and sent for processing. Plastic activation takes place after twenty days from the date of submission of the document. In some cases, the questionnaire is lost, so the method is not reliable.
Registration using the hotline
Registration of the Perekrestok bonus card by phone is more reliable. In order to activate the product, you need to call the following number: 8 800 200 95 55 ... This is the hotline number. Calls to it are free from anywhere in the country. The line is multichannel, you can call at any time of the day.

Online registration
Citizens with devices with access to the Internet can register the card product of the Perekrestok trading network using the official website of the store. The algorithm of actions is as follows:

For those who want to spend money profitably and at the same time save money, the unnamed rechargeable Perekrestok card from Alfa Bank is suitable.
Having paid 99 rubles for its issue once, the cardholder will be able to replenish the account with money, pay for purchases and collect points.
Among the offers of the "cross" network, debit and credit cards from the supermarket's partners - Alfa Bank and Tinkoff Bank - have firmly taken their positions. Transactions on their accounts can be carried out in the same way: in cash and bonus points.
Crossroads map: how to activate
In order for the bonus account to start operating, you must first register it, after which you can work in the "Personal Account". Any user can handle this task. However, a call to 8-800-200-95-55, where competent operators work, will save time. The responding specialist will gladly provide support to everyone who applies.
Crossroads card activation- There are 2 methods for self-activation of the card: through the "Personal Account" and through the number 9555, to which a message with personal data and card number is sent.
- Call to the "hot line".
Regardless of which method is chosen, it will be free for the cardholder.
What is in the "Personal Account"
The history of transactions, available loyalty programs - all this is displayed in the "Personal Account". Most often, of course, the service is used in order to assess the state of the account.
![](https://i1.wp.com/okartah.ru/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/perekrestok-1.jpg)
To the listed "benefits" from working with the service, you can safely add personal offers for a specific owner of a club card.
![](https://i0.wp.com/okartah.ru/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/perekrestok-2.jpg)
The application "My Crossroads" will open the program participant a whole world of basic and additional opportunities. For example, it will come to the rescue if the owner left the card at home. In this case, it will be enough to present the barcode to the cashier from the phone display, and the bonus points will be credited to the virtual account. Likewise, you can use e-wallet funds against a purchase, and sometimes pay in full.
Crossroads card: how to spend profitably in order to accumulate
Regular bonuses are added to the client's personal account in the usual order for the program: for one ruble in the buyer's check - one bonus.
Additional - if any of the following conditions exist:
Buyer's choice of goods from the "Favorite Products" section. The benefit in this case is 4% of the purchase amount, namely 4 points to the virtual account for each 10 rubles spent from the wallet. The “favorite” category of goods is different every month. This can be both grocery and bakery products, and goods for the garden and vegetable garden, as well as diabetic and healthy food, dairy and sausage products.
The birthday of a member with a club card will last a little longer: it will start 2 earlier. It is during this period that the volume of enrollments will already increase. Well, the "apogee" will be the day of the holiday itself. What is not a reason for the birthday man to give preference to the "cross" supermarket in preparation for the celebration? Points will be credited in the same manner as in the previous paragraph.
Participation in the Perekrestok trade promotions, where the buyer, having previously reviewed the personal offer in the Personal Account, receives several times more points by responding to the Perekrestok invitation. The number of bonuses can be 20 times more than the standard ones. It all depends on the specific promotion.
Payment for purchases by credit card. The choice of cashless payment at the checkout also promises a tangible plus on the card account. On average, these are additional points in the amount of 1 to 3.
However, the purchase will not bring any bonus to the participant's piggy bank, for, for example, alcoholic drinks or tobacco products. Or if you purchased gift certificates or made a payment with their help. Or if the buyer is already using another loyalty program. For example, discounts for retirees.
Also, the points earned cannot be presented to another participant and exchanged for money.
As early as the next day after making a purchase, a club member can enter "My Perekrestok" from a gadget and record the balance growth of the card. Moreover, the client himself decides at what stage to spend the accumulated points: save further or "invest" what is. The main thing is not to delay with this within the next year, otherwise the account will be canceled.
Perekrestok card: nice features
Another confirmation of the fact that it is pleasant to be a member of the Perekrestok club is the emphasized individual approach to each client.
It's always a pleasure to receive a personalized offer from a supermarket and even a few shopping coupons.
"Perekrestok" gives its customers the opportunity to receive more bonuses than stated on the basis of the purchase or in specific categories of goods.
The cardholder will be very pleased to find, having opened “My Perekrestok” in the phone, a notification of new coupons, or to receive this news from the cashier who closes the check for the next purchase.
In the mobile application, a loyalty program member can find another type of rewards from the supermarket - virtual stickers - which increases the percentage of customer discounts.
Who will benefit from the Perekrestok payment card?
The "Perekrestok" payment card will be the best option for adherents of electronic wallets. It is purchased in any supermarket of the same name for a symbolic fee - 99 rubles, it is registered and activated by the owner. You can read about it above.
The card account is replenished immediately after activation: through an ATM or at the cash office of any bank. The initial top-up amount must be at least 100 rubles.
The work of this product to accumulate profits takes place on very “appetizing” conditions:
For purchases in "cross" supermarkets, the holder will be enriched by 2 bonus points awarded for each 10 rubles spent in the store. While the same denomination in the check of another store will give 1 point to the customer's account.
Bonus payments in the amount of 100% of the purchase will be accepted at Perekrestok cash desks and in partner stores. To do this, it is enough to inform the cashier about your intention in advance.
Control expenses with a credit card from "Perekrestok"
The result of the synergy of partnership relations between the supermarket and Alfa Bank was the Perekrestok credit card. Users of electronic wallets will also appreciate its benefits.
A card with a monthly limit of 200 thousand rubles and a credit rate of 23.9% can be received both with home delivery and at a bank branch. In addition, you do not need to pay to receive the product, and the grace period will be 60 days. For this period, the interest rate is zero. The client will only need to pay 490 rubles annually for the service and keep in mind that a commission of 5.9% of the amount withdrawn is provided for cash withdrawals.
You can top up your account through the machine or through the cashier. The My Crossroads application will allow the cardholder to keep abreast of advantageous offers.
Any document proving the identity of a citizen of the Russian Federation is suitable for issuing a card. And in order to confirm a stable level of monthly income, a client who has reached the age of 18 will fill out a certificate in the form of a bank. The provision of this document will significantly increase the likelihood of a positive decision by the bank to issue a card.
For regular customers of the Perekrestok network, the benefits of using the card are obvious:
Savings from 2 to 3% of the purchase amount. The largest of them is for purchases at Perekrestok, when 3 points are returned to the bonus card for every 10 rubles. But shopping in other stores will also turn out to be profitable - 2 points plus to a virtual account for the same amount.
The starting gift capital in the amount of 5 thousand bonuses, which can be safely spent within the walls of "cross" supermarkets, is available immediately and within the next 45 days. The starting point is the date of card registration.
Debit card "Crossroads"
The Perekrestok debit card is another Alfa Bank product that allows you to pay for purchases in electronic currency. You can apply for a card by following the link https://anketa.alfabank.ru.
The unconditional "trick" of this banking product is the impossibility to go into the red. The advantage will be appreciated by shoppers who find it difficult to track their own expenses. Payment from the card will not work if the balance reaches zero.
This product provides the customer with several benefits:
Savings from 1 to 3% for purchases made. The greatest benefit will "return" to the bonus account of the program participant who visited the "Perekrestok".
Save 7% on purchases in the Favorite Products category.
2 thousand welcome bonuses that a loyalty program member can spend within the walls of the supermarket of the same name.
This banking product is available to Alfa Bank customers with a high degree of loyalty. It is understood that cooperation has already been established between the buyer and the bank.
Tinkoff Crossroads card: easy to spend, easy to save
The second major partner of the Perekrestok retail chain is Tinkoff Bank. In tandem with Alfa Bank, they issue five co-branded cards, each of which is equipped with contactless payment functions. Entering a PIN is not required at all. It is enough to put the card to the reader for payment.
The inscription "Allow yourself some more" displayed on the plastic card sounds like an appeal. It is not unreasonable, because the conditions of the bank tariff for this card are even more attractive. They start with a free card issuance and delivery.
And of course, a nice bonus in the form of 6% per annum points in the amount of up to 300 thousand rubles, if the client's expenses for the billing period exceed 3 thousand.
For cardholders, bank transfers of any kind are free, as are financial transactions up to 20 thousand rubles.
With the Tinkoff Perekrestok card, you can “without consequences” withdraw from 3 to 150 thousand rubles from a card of any bank.
There is also no charge for top-ups by bank transfer. As well as for depositing up to 300 thousand rubles on the card for the billing period.
The advantages of this product are obvious, but no significant disadvantages were found.
Credit card "Crossroads Tinkoff" - for daily purchases
Any adult citizen of the Russian Federation with a good credit history and stable income can apply for a banking product. You do not need to visit the office and provide a bank statement on income or 2-NDFL.
Borrowers who choose the Tinkoff Perekrestok credit card are attracted by the absence of issuance and delivery fees. But the annual service may seem expensive - 990 rubles. On the other hand, there are more charges than on other tariffs.
"At the entrance" the client will expect 8 thousand welcome bonuses. Accruals for purchases will take place according to the scheme below.
For the cardholder, reissue and other manipulations with the card will be free, as well as replenishment of the balance in any way and sending statements and reminders. At no additional charge, the client will be able to work in the mobile application and receive support through various communication channels: chat, by phone or email.
If the cardholder wishes to withdraw cash from the credit card, then he must be ready to pay in excess of the stated amount.
The interest rate on the loan is quite high, and this is one of the significant disadvantages. Another is a short grace period, which also does not apply to cashing funds from a card.
How it works in practice
The vastness of Internet resources gives out the opinions of those for whom Perekrestok cards are very useful, and those for whom the advantages of this product are not so obvious.
There are also opinions about the uselessness of this product for the budget of a particular buyer.
This division is based on the frequency of purchases in the "cross" supermarket by a specific customer.
When the marketing industry offers consumers another product, everyone decides for himself whether to use it or not. Crossroads cards are no exception.
Today, many shops offer their customers to issue so-called discount cards, with the help of which you can get various discounts and bonuses. The Perekrestok supermarket chain does not lag behind others in this matter - however, here you will be offered to purchase such a card for symbolic money. In addition, this bonus plastic must also be activated. It is in this question that some buyers have difficulties: where to find the activation code for the "Crossroads" card, how to activate the discount, how to spend the accumulated and so on. The answers to exactly such questions can be found in this article.
How to get a card
Before moving on to such a question as activating the Crossroads card, let's talk about how exactly you can get it. It is very easy to do this:
- visit the Perekrestok supermarket closest to you;
- pay a one-time membership fee for participation in the loyalty program at the store checkout - it is only 49 rubles;
- receive an envelope containing the card itself and the participant's questionnaire;
- activate the card in any convenient way;
- in the future, at each visit to the supermarket, present a club card at the time of each payment for goods.
Benefits: accrual and write-off of points
Bonuses are replenished with every purchase in the Perekrestok supermarket chain. Club card activation is quite simple and can be done in three ways. We will talk about each of them in detail below.
The number of points credited to the card depends on how much you spent:
- less than 2,000 rubles - 1 point for every 10 rubles spent by you;
- from 2,000 to 5,000 rubles. - 5 points for 10 rubles;
- more than 5,000 rubles. - 10 points.
But the reverse conversion does not depend on the amount spent, here 10 bonus points are always equivalent to 1 ruble. To avoid misunderstandings when paying, it is worth warning the cashier that you are going to pay for the purchase with points.
You can use the bonus card not only in the Perekrestok supermarket chain. On the company's website, you can find a whole list of stores and partner sites, when you visit which you will also receive bonus points. Here are some of them:
- burger King chain of restaurants and fast food cafes - here you will receive 3 points for every ten spent;
- kANZLER men's clothing and accessories store - 5 bonus points for 10 rubles;
- cruise company "MOSTURFLOT" - 1 point for 10 rubles;
- online store of electronic books "Liters" - 5 bonus points for every 10 rubles;
- the network of filling stations "AZK TNK" - here one point is given for the spent ten;
- mobile operator WHYFLY - offers to get 50 points for every hundred rubles spent there.
In addition, the partners include the Philips online store and the Moreon water entertainment center. The list is constantly updated, so you should keep an eye on new partners on the club's website - this will help you save even more.
Co-branding program
To make your life even easier, you can also use a special Alfa-Bank card, which is a partner of the chain of the above-mentioned supermarkets. In this case, activation of the "Crossroads" card is not required at all.
Such a card can be debit or credit, you can use it in the chain's supermarkets and other partner stores. Alfa-Bank's bank card provides other additional features:
- internet banking, with which you can pay for various services: mobile phone, fines, taxes and other payments;
- cash withdrawal through ATMs;
- SMS informing about banking operations;
- others.
Similar loyalty programs are also offered by "CityBank", "Guta-Bank", "HomeCredit".
Activating the "Crossroads" card: method one
This method is considered the simplest, but, as practice shows, the most ineffective. As you remember, a questionnaire is offered to the bonus card, which must be filled out. It's pretty simple to do this - if you're in no rush, you can answer questions right in the store. After that, you just need to give the completed form to the cashier and wait. The Perekrestok store card will be activated in 20 days.
Not very convenient, as you can see. Firstly, 20 days is quite a lot, and secondly, the questionnaires are often lost, deteriorated, or something else happens to them. So quite often it happens like this: you wait and wait, the points are accumulated, but the card is not activated. What to do?
Method two: hotline
In order to activate the card, it is enough to call the toll-free number indicated on the back. For those who haven't found it, a hint: it's number 8-800-200-95-55. Activating the Perekrestok card by phone means that you have to answer the operator's questions and dictate your contact information. Actually, these are the same questions as indicated in the questionnaire. After 20 days, the card will be active and you will be able to spend the accumulated points.
This type of card actuation is also not in great demand among consumers. There are many complaints that it is not so easy to get through to the hotline, sometimes it is possible to do this only from the tenth time.
Method three: simple and reliable
The most simple and straightforward activation of the "Crossroads" card via the Internet. To do this, you need to go to the official website of the program - it is also indicated on the back of the card. So, we go to the site perekrestok.x5club.ru. We go down to the very bottom of the main page and find in the lower right corner the button "Activate card", click. The link will lead to a page with which you can get to the "Personal Account". There is also a button "Activate a new card", we go here. Then we get to the page where it is proposed to enter the card number and the activation code for the Perekrestok card.
Activating a new card without this data is impossible, but where can I get the code? It's very simple: until you have activated your card, the cashier will give you 2 checks with each purchase:
- one - directly for the amount spent in the store;
- another - with information about the accumulated points.
It is in this second check that your card activation code is contained. So if you lose it, all you need to do is buy something at Perekrestok and keep the second check.
What else does the card do?
In addition to the main points for purchases, you can get additional points by issuing the same cards to your family members. True, the additional card only helps to accumulate points, it will not work to get a discount again.
You can also receive additional points on your birthday - on this day you will receive 4 bonus points for every 10 rubles spent.
Once a month, you can set the "Favorite Products" option in your "Personal Account". For the selected group of products over the next month, you will receive four times more points for every ten spent. If after a month you have not changed your favorite group, the discount will be extended for another thirty days. However, there is one nuance: the “Favorite Products” discount cannot be used when purchasing tobacco products and alcoholic beverages.
To always know how many points have accumulated on the bonus account, you can use several methods:
- activate the bonus balance notification in the "Personal Account";
- call the "hot line";
- send an SMS to number 2663, indicate your card number in the text;
- look at the check.
However, the "Crossroads" card also has limitations. For example, you cannot pay with points for products that are already participating in a preferential program. Also, one and the same card cannot be used in one store more than 5 times a day, and it is impossible to carry out more than 15 transactions per day on the same bonus account.
Conclusion
As you can see, activation of the "Crossroads" card is a very simple matter, which any program participant can do. To issue such a bonus plastic or not is everyone's personal business. Fifty rubles for participation in the club program is not such a big fee. But if a supermarket is located in close proximity to your home or work, and you often look there, then the offered discount can bring significant savings to your budget.
