Advancing Mobile Payments in China and Southeast Asia
summary
China already uses 54% of payments via QR/e-wallets with Alipay and WeChat Pay dominant; Southeast Asia stays fragmented: Indonesia adds Dana and GoPay while cards remain significant, Vietnam shows Momo: 10M users, 100k stores and heavy cash on delivery, Malaysia and Thailand mix bank-backed and superapp wallets. Technical hooks: WeChat Pay well‑documented APIs and cross‑border options, marketplaces use headless backends and mini‑program rules (mini programs accept only WeChat Pay), and foreign merchants can use YouPay aggregator to accept Chinese payments without a local license.
