Weixin Pay now collaborates with over 40 wallets in more than 10 countries and regions, connecting users to its tens of millions of merchants throughout the Chinese Mainland.

WeChat Pay HK, Mongolia’s Hipay, Singapore’s LiquidPay, Vietnam’s Zalopay have been successfully integrated to CPG through TenPay Global.
