What is Alipay?


Alipay is the largest online payment service provider in China. With more than 800 million Chinese accounts, Alipay is already the biggest mobile payment processor in the world.

The e-commerce giant sold a record-breaking $9.3 billion worth of goods during the 24-hour sale on China’s Singles Day, the world’s largest one-day online shopping holiday. Alipay, the main payment option on Alibaba’s sites, has played a crucial role in processing such massive amount of transaction values from over 200 countries.

Why GOG should add Alipay to its payment option?

There is a big game market in China, and Alipay is the easiest and best way for chinese gamers to buy games online.


And?

And Steam, Humble Bundle, Greenmangaming already have Alipay in their payment option. If you never see it , that s probably because they set that Alipay only show up when your IP address is in China.

As a chinese gamer, Here are some pics when i buy games using Alipay on Steam, Humble Bundle, Greenmangaming.

+1 vote for me. I had never even heard about this until recently. Seems to me that there's no reason not to have it as an option, so hopefully it's added soon. Can't hurt to have a better way to pay for so many people.
+1 to this
Let's give more money to Jack Ma.
Steam removed Alipay today, i feel i have the duty to tell you that. I think it is some govment policy, so maybe dont bother to add Alipay to your payment option rightnow although GOG never add Alipay before.

It's owned by a company called Alibaba Group, who among many other things, also run AliExpress (an Ebay-like marketplace), and the Chinese version of Yahoo!.
