International travellers may pay online and offline with their home payment apps around the world with ease and security. Merchants utilize Alipay+ digital marketing and growth tools to build more effective consumer engagement at home and abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of January 2024, Alipay+ partner wallets and bank apps include Alipay (Chinese Mainland), AlipayHK (Hong Kong SAR, China), GCash (Philippines), TrueMoney (Thailand), Touch \u2018n Go eWallet (Malaysia), OCBC Digital (Singapore) and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c2024 will be a exciting year for Alipay+ to unlock many digital innovations in online and offline cross-border commerce,&#8221; said\u00a0<strong>Douglas L. Feagin<\/strong>, President of Alipay+.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>&#8220;As a global travel phenomenon, Chinese New Year is the perfect moment to kickstart our new range of partnerships, campaigns and product offerings to build a seamless and authentic travel experience and bring more business for merchants large and small.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exclusive campaigns to drive merchant growth and user savings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the 2024 CNY holidays beginning on Feb 10th,\u00a0China\u2019s outbound travel bookings\u00a0 have surged more than 10 times compared to 2023. Top travel destinations include those with visa-free policy such as Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia for Chinese tourists, alongside other popular destinations including Japan and South Korea. Cross-border consumption is expected to surge for other Asian origins too \u2013 in Singapore, for example, there was seven times increase in bookings for the Chinese New Year in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Malaysia, shopping complexes are eagerly anticipating an increase in foreign tourist arrivals. While in Thailand, almost 1 million foreign visitors are expected, generating 28.4 billion baht (~US$800 million) for the local economy, with the highest arrivals expected to be tourists from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong SAR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make the Alipay app the go-to travel companion for Chinese globe-trotters, Alipay has invested in building market leadership with three Rs: transparent and competitive exchange rates, free or discounted roaming data packages, and in-app ride-hailing convenience in more and more destinations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the destinations&#8217; side, global merchants are matching with wide-ranging special packages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Special voucher bundles with up to 90 percent savings for use across all Alipay+ merchants in&nbsp;<strong>Southeast Asia<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deals by more than 500 street merchants around Mount Fuji in Fujiyoshida and Kawaguchi Lake in\u00a0<strong>Japan<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>All ZeroPay merchants across\u00a0<strong>South Korea<\/strong>\u00a0and at shops in the most popular shopping district, Myeongdong<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Luxury brands across&nbsp;<strong>Europe<\/strong>&nbsp;including Cartier, Valentino, Harrods, Selfridges, Duomo di Milano, La Rinascente and El Corte Ingles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Dubai Airport Duty Free Shop in the&nbsp;<strong>United Arab Emirates<\/strong>&nbsp;will conduct a UEFA ticket lottery throughout February offering Alipay+ users the chance to win a set of UEFA tickets, with flights and accommodation included, when they spend over 250 AED.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expanding the Cross-Border Merchant Ecosystem<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The new push in 2024 is built on significant expansion of Alipay+ merchant coverage in key travel destinations over 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, Alipay+ became the only cross-border digital solution partner to leading national QR schemes in the region: SGQR (Singapore), DuitNow(Malaysia) and ZeroPay(South Korea). This allows users of Alipay+ payment partners to pay using their home e-wallets at virtually all shops big and small in these countries, enabling tourists to travel and pay like a local more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Singapore, SQGR is accepted island-wide including at all hawker centres, while Malaysia\u2019s DuitNow QR is accepted by 1.8 million merchants and South Korea\u2019s ZeroPay includes 1.7 million merchants.

especially international travel is clearly an anchor for national and regional prosperity in Asia and beyond,&#8221; said\u00a0<strong>Feagin<\/strong>. &#8220;Alipay+ will continue to expand
