Excellent presentation with detailed information especially for the portion of the transaction charge. My first encounter with such information. Keep up with the good work. I may have some questions later on. Thanks.

I am glad it helped and thanks for sharing your feedback. 🌷
申请绑定的时候,您需要有效的护照, 过期的护照不是一个有效证件,not valid,应该不可以用来申请绑定的,this is common sense. 我不知道什么是外国人永久身份证?如果是中国政府发给您的身份证,那您就可以按照中国国内的身份证进行认证。谢谢您。

Can you update if this can be used back in China when you visit there. I also live in Canada. Last year I visited China but even credit card tied to Alipay but could not use. Thanks.

Sure, I will update. But in the comment some one already went to China recently and it worked, no issue there, just FYI. Thanks for watching. 🌹❤
Thanks for sharing. I have a question. I did link my Canadian credit card to WeChat like what you do and my WeChat currently is linked to my Canadian mobile number. Going to China to travel next month. I want to know when I arrive at the airport and get a local Chinese mobile number, do I need to change my WeChat account info to link my WeChat to the Chinese mobile number ? Please advise. Thank you. 🙏🏻

HI thanks for watching and very good question too. I will go to China end of this year, will have the same situation that you are facing. Hopefully someone will be able to answer our question from this thread. But my suggestion: 1. just try using the WeChat Pay first without changing to a Chinese local phone number. 2. If WeChat Pay askes you to enter a cell validation code before paying, then you may need to change to the Chinese local number as we are not going to roam our Canadian number in China. By the way, I read a news that in the Beijing International Airport, there is a kiosk to provide free service to oversea travelers about how to use WeChat Pay or Ali Pay. I know it is so inconvenience for us, no Apple Pay, no Google Pay, no Credit Card pay in China, but what we can do? mmmm..... Anyway Good Luck! When you come back from China, would you mind to update me too if we need to swap to the local Chinese number for WeChat Pay? Thanks in advance. 🥰❤🌹

@@freelikewind Sure, will do. Thank you so much for sharing you info. I appreciate it. Also, for some travellers out there, just my two cents... it is nice to have an open-mind when going travelling abroad. Every place/nation has their systems, customs, and procedures... I think it is a good idea that people have an open mind to 'respect' others/nation. Just like when travellers come to visit Canada... they should keep an open mind to respect our customs, style and systems as well. Going to some places in the world requires dressing appropriately to respect their tradition, customs... same for their other procedures, rule and customs (and they are there for a reasons that many ppl don't know the history and circumstances). To "respect" instead of making a non-objective, biased judgement when going travelling abroad will add good and positive experiences. Just a suggestions to other travellers. If travellers don't like the systems, procedures and complain all day, then perhaps they can choose a different destination. No place on earth is perfect, but the strive to improve is alway welcome. The world is full of different places of different customs, traditions, systems... that's what makes it interesting and colourful.

@@OP-mz3hr Very well said and I totally agreed with you! Any county in the world has it's negative side, but looking more at the positive side will make our life happier. My overall video style is more about normal and happy life in any area of the world. 🤩💥 I don't want to show all the negative stuff to impact my daily emotion and feeling, I am retired and just want to have a happy life and trying to take everything easy. 😀❤🏖🌹Cheers!

@@freelikewind Totally agree with you. Yes. Positive energy attracts positive :) But there will always be viewers to youtube channels that will throw negative, biased comments at you. That's why i think it is important for travellers out there to have an open-mind if they want to go to a specific destination.

I signed up yesterday, stillnot able to send/receive cash between friends from China. @@freelikewind
One crucial point. Do we need a local China SIM card to process online payments (my WeChat bundled Mastercard)? My logic tells me "No data, no internet, no connection". Don't forget we are aliens in another country. Hello from Australia.

you will need to have cell phone data to use Wechat pay. Once I arrive China, I am going to get a local cell phone number from China Telecom.

You've just filled in the last piece of the puzzle. Thank you. We've been spoiled by social media and totally forgot about money. These are daily common interactivities outside China but are actually separated inside. Happy my logic prevails again. Last of all, think physical sim is more reliable for online payments than eSIM. The latter might be powerful for social media (without VPN) but what if it fails to connect to your card? Another worry is eSIM might chew up data a lot faster coz it's built on roaming basis.

@@spaceinvader384 if the connection fails during wechat pay, then better bring some cash with you or bring your credit card with you. This is what I am going to do.
@Wunderpus-photogenicus 3 minutes ago (edited) If I pay via Alipay in China to buy things (say RMB 100), will the bank statement of the credit card show the same amount (after exchanged to US$), same amount as I was charged by the merchant (RMB), or could it be more? Will US banks deliberately use exchange rates unfavorable to me?

Sorry, I haven't been in China yet, not sure how it will work. Hoppy someone from here can provide you the answer.
