Payouts to China via Alipay

China is served through Alipay, not a bank account: no bank to choose, no branch code, no account format to validate.

What you pass in the request

A request with phone number linked to alipay goes to Alipay in China; the response comes back with the status: completed, typically under 5 minutes.
  • Payouts

    Phone number linked to Alipay.

  • QR payments

    The code payload, exactly as the camera read it.

  • Sender identity

    Sender: name, phone and email. Recipient name: required.

How the payout works

The wallet is the address

Pass the recipient’s name and the phone number linked to their Alipay account — a number registered in any country works. Amounts are in yuan with two decimal places.

What the sender needs

First name, last name, phone and email — all four. If the sender is registered for another market with only a name, update that record instead of creating a new one; the identifier stays the same.

Questions and answers

  • Does the phone number have to be Chinese?

    No. An Alipay wallet can be registered to a number from any country and such payouts go through.

  • Do I need the recipient's name?

    Yes. Pass it with the phone number linked to their Alipay account.

  • Can the sender be a company?

    This corridor accepts individual senders.

  • What if the account does not exist?

    The payment system refuses it and the funds return to your balance.

  • Are there bank transfers to China?

    Our live rail into China is Alipay. Ask us if you need something else — it may already be in integration.

Name the markets. We bring the rails.

Which markets, which products, roughly what volume. We come back with terms, test keys and the documentation.
