DBS First Singapore Bank to Support China’s Three Major QR Payments

DBS PayLah! now supports both Alipay and Weixin Pay merchant QR payments across mainland China.

The expansion allows more than three million users to pay at over 100 million partner merchants by scanning QR codes or presenting their own for merchants to scan.

The service adds to DBS‘ existing UnionPay QR connectivity, making it the first and only bank in Singapore to support both payment methods across China’s three major QR payment ecosystems.

Users can review the payment amount in Chinese yuan, the exchange rate and Singapore dollar equivalent before confirming, with no additional transaction fees.

“Our partnerships with Ant International and TenPay Global bring together the best of our payment ecosystems, giving DBS PayLah! users the freedom to pay across China and merchants are not required to change how they operate.”

Its wider network covers more than 70 million Alipay+ and UnionPay QR merchants worldwide.

DBS will run two cashback promotions from 16 November 2026 to 31 January 2027.

Users who have not made overseas QR payments through PayLah! in the past 12 months can receive up to S$3 cashback on their first eligible transaction, with no minimum spend.

A separate offer provides S$3 cashback on the first eligible Alipay+ QR payment of at least S$6.

Customers who qualify for both can receive up to S$6 on a single transaction, subject to redemption limits.
