Pockets have gotten heavier: in six months, the amount of cash in Russians' wallets has increased by a quarter.
The trend recorded by the SuperJob service is clear: the wallets of the country's residents are once again filling up with paper and metal money. If in October 2025 the average Russian carried 3.5 thousand rubles, then in 2026 this figure reached 4.3 thousand rubles. The increase was 23%. The survey involved 11.6 thousand citizens from all districts.
The share of those who do not carry a single bill or coin in their pockets today is 27%. At the same time, the habits of men and women differ: they carry 5.1 thousand and 3.1 thousand respectively.
The older a person is, the more cash they prefer to keep on hand. Citizens under 35 limit themselves to 2.1 thousand rubles, while survey participants aged 45 and older have an average of 4.8 thousand rubles with them.
Education also makes a noticeable difference. Holders of higher education carry an average of 4.7 thousand rubles. In contrast, Russians with secondary vocational education carry only 1.9 thousand rubles. Moreover, among the latter, every third person (31%) does not use cash at all.
High income, as expected, increases the amount in the wallet. Respondents earning over 150 thousand rubles per month carry an average of 5.8 thousand rubles. For 5% of this group, the amount exceeds 20 thousand. At the same time, they are less likely to refuse cash than those who earn less.
As for geography, in six million-plus cities—Moscow, Voronezh, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Rostov-on-Don, and Krasnodar—the average amount of cash this year turned out to be the same: 4.5 thousand rubles. Residents of the capital (29%) and St. Petersburg (26%) are the most likely to not carry bills and coins. Meanwhile, among Nizhny Novgorod residents, there are the fewest of such individuals, but the amount they carry is more modest—an average of 3.5 thousand rubles.
