What is RuStore and how it works

About RuStore

RuStore is a Russian app store developed for Android devices. The RuStore catalog contains almost 4000 games and services offered by technology companies, banks, cellular service providers, marketplaces and other developers. RuStore was launched in May 2022 and has already become the leading Russian app store with over 7 million users.

RuStore is being developed by VK and other top IT companies with the support of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation, to ensure stable access to most common applications and updates in case of any changes.

RuStore makes user security a top priority. All applications are scanned for viruses via Kaspersky Lab's security systems and manual moderation.

Our goal

RuStore makes sure that you can safely download, buy and update services, games, social networks, marketplaces without any restrictions, as well as pay for in-app subscriptions and goods.

As for developers, they can upload games and services to the RuStore, enable monetization, respond to user reviews and view purchase statistics.

80% of the most popular Russian services are available on the RuStore. For example, official Sberbank, VTB, Ozon, Wildberries and other large companies' apps.

How to download and install RuStore

You can use RuStore on any device version starting from Android 6.0. To do this, you need to download the RuStore application file from the official website and allow permissions to install unknown applications in your device settings.

Upon installation and authorization, you can download free and paid services and games, pay for in-app subscriptions and items using cards of any Russian bank. For your convenience, you can also add your card details in advance to your personal account.

Moreover, RuStore users can leave feedback on applications and find new services using a convenient search engine that understands words regardless of language or typos.
