Is it doable for 1 AliPay account to support 2 travellers?

I have my AliPay setup and verified to pay for food, commute, tickets and others, for me and my travel partner (no AliPay at all). The one inconvenience I can think of is having to buy subway tickets at the ticketing booth or counter as one of us cannot just tap phone to enter. TIA.

Have linked my Alipay with Wise card (with some balance) and Alipay successfully performed a card check. Thought wanted to try it out here locally.

Made a small purchase in a store that accepts Alipay but the transaction was not successful nor failed on my end - just nothing. Merchant side failed. No transaction history in Alipay. Wise balance not reduced. Worried if I'm doing something wrong (like payment only can in China).

My sis told me the Alipay locally is only for China Alipay use. Although i do not know the difference. Anyway, i have used Alipay and Wechat that link to with WISE card in China, no problem.

Thanks much for the reply. Hopefully it works okay in China when I'm there later this year.

Quick question.. do you topup RMB in Wise or just MYR and let it auto-convert? TIA.

I found this website from Reddit comment to test your Alipay Wechat payment setup from home. Cost is 1RMB/0.60MYR for me and my setup is Alipay/Wise.

Not sure if legit or not so perform at your own risk ya. I have no affliation to the website.
