you still can use Wechatpay in China, as long as you link your bank card to Wechatpay. Otherwise u can use Alipay as your alternative

i saw this somewhere

WeChat Pay has recently announced a preferential campaign targeting the payments using international bank cards.

International bank card users who link their cards to WeChat Pay for the first time are each eligible for a full waiver of the 3% transaction fee on daily transactions under CNY 1,000 for 60 consecutive days starting from their first transactions, with a maximum saving of CNY 30 per transaction.

For all international bank card users, every single transaction under CNY 200 is eligible for an exemption from the 3% transaction fee.

How to Set Up WeChat Pay in China

- Open WeChat and use the search function to look for “微信支付”.
- Sign up and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the registration process.

As a new user, you are eligible for a 7-day fee waiver. Normally, transactions above RMB 200 are subject to a 3% surcharge, but this fee is waived for the first 7 days after activation.
