How to use Kling, Veo and Nano Banana from Russia
You can use Kling, Veo and Nano Banana from Russia without a VPN or a foreign card through a service that works with the models itself and takes payment in rubles. In Solistra you pay with a Russian bank card or SBP, and requests to foreign models are sent only after you consent to cross border data transfer.

Open the catalogWhy going direct does not work
Many developers’ official services are not available to users in Russia. For example, Russia is not on the list of regions where Google AI Studio and the Gemini API are available, and those are the routes to Veo and Nano Banana. Foreign services also usually do not accept Russian bank cards.
VPNs, borrowed accounts and paying through middlemen with someone else’s card break the terms of many services. The account can be banned along with its paid balance, so we do not recommend these workarounds.
How access through Solistra works
You sign up for Solistra with your email and use the catalog models in one window. Provider keys are kept on the service side, not in your browser, and you do not need your own account with the model developer.
The credit price of every generation is shown on the button before you run it. Credits are reserved at the start and charged after the result, and if the model fails the reserve is returned.
Paying with Russian cards and SBP
Spark, Pulse, Orbit and Nova plans and credit packs are paid with a Russian bank card or through SBP. SBP is the Bank of Russia’s fast payment system for instant transfers and purchases, operated by NSPK.
Credits are added and a receipt is issued only after the payment provider confirms the payment. Auto renewal turns on only when you tick it and turns off in your account in one click.
Consent to cross border transfer
Transfers of personal data abroad are governed by Article 12 of the Russian personal data law. Solistra asks for separate consent to cross border transfer before you first use a foreign model. Without consent, those models stay unavailable.
- Only media stripped of EXIF metadata and the prompt text leave Russia
- Your email, phone number, user ID and IP address are never sent
- The task is labeled with a random ID at the provider
- The database, files and backups are stored in Russia
What to know up front
Solistra does not give you an account with Google or Kling. You work with the models and modes in the catalog, and the lineup also depends on decisions by the model developers.
Moderation checks the prompt before generation and the result after it, and there is no 18+ mode. The rule is the same for every model.
How to do it in Solistra
The catalog shows the tasks, settings and price of each model, and you run it in the same window.
