# WeChat Pay

*Last updated: 2026-08-03*

The payment function inside WeChat, and one of the two wallets Chinese visitors reach for by default. A Singapore merchant enables it through an acquirer, not by signing up with WeChat — there is no merchant sign-up page for a Singapore business.

## Why it matters to a merchant

Enabled separately from Alipay+, which surprises merchants who assume "Chinese wallets" is one switch. For a business whose customers include mainland visitors, the practical consequence is that coverage has to be confirmed method by method rather than as a category.
