Using innovative payment interaction technology, the service will improve the payment experience for visitors to <strong>Macau<\/strong> and open up new opportunities for digital business and marketing. It will also contribute to the development of a smart city by supporting digital upgrades and connectivity in the Greater Bay Area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alipay Tap! is a payment service introduced by Alipay in July 2024 in mainland China. Users can simply unlock their phones and tap the merchant\u2019s payment device to complete a transaction without opening the Alipay app. The solution has quickly become popular with both users and merchants and is currently available in more than 100 cities and over 1,000 shopping malls and commercial areas in mainland China. In addition to payments, Alipay has also collaborated with partners to create more than 50 digital industry solutions, such as <strong>\u201cTap to Order\u201d and \u201cTap to Open Self-service Vending Machine\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the first phase, Sands China rolled out Alipay Tap! at 300 outlets in its integrated resorts, including <strong>The Venetian Macao, The Parisian Macao, The Londoner Macao<\/strong>, and Sands Macao. It can be used for various payments such as hotel accommodation, dining, shopping, and ticketing, providing customers with a convenient payment experience. Tourists from mainland China using Alipay Tap! at Sands Resorts Macao can also enjoy several offers during the promotional period, including an exclusive coupon for the first transaction through Alipay Tap! in Macao and other cross-border tourism promotions that have been released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merchants can use one terminal to meet the payment needs of both tourists and locals using regular e-wallets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A representative from a Sands Resorts Macao merchant shared, \u201cAs Chinese mainland tourists are generally familiar with Alipay Tap!, combined with various recent promotional offers, the number of Alipay Tap! transactions has significantly increased since its launch, greatly enhancing operational efficiency\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jiajia Li<\/strong>, Vice President of Alipay, Ant Group, said: \u201cMacao has unique geographic advantages, providing an ideal environment for the introduction of innovative technologies. Alipay and Alipay+\u2019s cross-border services have already covered nearly 90% of merchants in Macao. The successful introduction of Alipay Tap! in Macao will further enhance the convenience of payments for Chinese mainland visitors, accelerate the digital transformation of businesses, unlock more commercial potential, and promote the digital connectivity of digital everyday services within the Greater Bay Area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The introduction of Alipay Tap! in Macao is not just a simple replication of the payment model but also creates a local digital business model benchmark. The collaboration between the three companies integrates Alipay\u2019s user experience and membership preferences, Sands China\u2019s unique services and benefits, and Macau Pass\u2019s regional coverage and operational expertise. Together, they have created a new digital business model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sands China Ltd., Alipay and Macau Pass jointly launched the Alipay Tap! service at Sands Resorts Macao.
