BEIJING (Reuters) - American Express and Alipay on Tuesday said all global American Express card members can now link their cards to the Alipay digital wallet, enabling payments at tens of millions of merchants across mainland China.
The initiative not only simplifies transactions for travellers but also provides local businesses with greater opportunities to attract international customers, the companies said in a joint statement.
