In 2019, a new wave of face-based payment entrepreneurship was set off. As the saying goes, the opportunity cannot be missed, and time will never come. Xinshangren will take you to seize the opportunity of face-based payment, and everyone is ready. The official website of Alipay and WeChat will provide various subsidies for the red envelope from time to time.

Mainland tourists can start to pay for their face with their face. This is the first time Alipay’s self-developed facial payment has exited the country. Prior to this, Alipay’s facial payment has covered more than 300 cities in the Mainland.
