Starting from May 20th, JD Finance, wallets and other apps under the three major telecommunications operators will achieve commercial payment code interconnection with WeChat Pay.
It is reported that the interoperability between JD Finance and other wallet apps and WeChat Pay has been piloted by some merchants, and will gradually be fully opened for interoperability in the future. At that time, users can directly use JD Financial App, as well as wallet apps under China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, to scan WeChat Pay merchant codes and personal codes for payment.
This is another new progress in interconnectivity after WeChat Pay achieved personal code interoperability with China Mobile's "Hebao App", China Telecom's "Yi Payment App", and China Unicom's "Wo Wallet App" last year.
At present, WeChat Pay has supported nearly 30 banks including Industry, Agriculture, China, Construction, Transportation, and Postal Savings Bank, as well as multiple institutions such as Cloud QuickPass, China Mobile "Hebao", China Telecom "Yipay", China Unicom "Wowallet", and JD Finance for barcode payment interconnection. Users can complete payment by scanning the WeChat payment receipt code using the aforementioned institutional app.
In addition, WeChat Pay's commercial and operational payment codes have been fully opened in the pilot areas of digital RMB, and users can use the digital RMB app to scan codes and make payments in digital RMB.
