There was prior traveler experience showing that Belarus-issued Alfa Bank cards had worked in Georgia on TBC payment terminals in the previous year. So at least this acquiring network had accepted the card before.
A confirmed working report for Belarus-issued Alfa Bank cards was mentioned for April 2026, when payments in Georgia were still going through normally. If you’re traveling now, it’s sensible to carry some backup cash in lari in case a terminal declines the card.
