Action required

Alipay will soon deprecate. We recommend migrating to Alipay+ as soon as possible.

Alipay is a leading global payment method that lets Chinese customers link their card or bank account to a digital wallet. It supports online, QR, and contactless <> payments, as well as international money transfers.

For Chinese customers, Alipay accounts are verified and linked to their Chinese bank account. Since 2021, non-Chinese customers can also pay with Alipay using the Tour Pass.
