Alipay and WeChat Pay are the most common and convenient ways to pay in China. Cash is still widely accepted, and credit cards work in most hotels and large stores. To make things easier, we recommend setting up Alipay or WeChat Pay before your trip.
Payment options at key locations:
-
Hotels (e.g., Zhongguanyuan Global Village PKU): Cash, Visa card, Mastercard, Alipay, WeChat Pay
-
Taxis: Cash, Alipay, WeChat Pay
-
Daily shopping (restaurants, shops, supermarkets, etc.): Primarily Alipay and WeChat Pay; cash is accepted in most places; credit cards are less common.
