The Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation is planning an experiment to introduce a self-locking feature for online shopping. The initiative is aimed at protecting against impulsive spending at the suggestion of the Vice Speaker of the State Duma Vladislav Davankov, they write "a href="https://ria.ru/20250312/minekonomrazvitiya-2004440962.html ?ysclid=m85jdk1ecd635366364">RIA Novosti.

So, users will be able to voluntarily set limits on purchases or impose a complete ban on transactions. The Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation is ready to participate in the development of protective mechanisms for consumers.

To implement the system, it is planned to study the experience of similar measures: self-prohibition of loans and microloans, as well as a ban on gambling.
