Singapore's Sentosa lures Chinese customers with expanded Alipay link

Currently, Chinese travellers can already make online bookings for hotel packages and attraction tickets on Sentosa's website, and select Alipay for online payment, before leaving their country.[Photo by R.G.B/Asianewsphoto]

With this new collaboration, Alipay online payment terminals are now made available at more than 110 locations around Resorts World Sentosa and more services at the resort will progressively become Alipay-enabled across its hotels, dining, retail and entertainment.

RWS and Alipay will also roll out joint travel packages and promotions, as part of the partnership, exclusively for Alipay users.

"This collaboration seeks to bring about greater convenience and appeal to Chinese visitors, and position Alipay as everyone's preferred global lifestyle mobile app," the resort said.
