Alipay Wallet, the mobile payments and service app of Alibaba Group, has been available for mobile payments in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and will arrive in South Korea soon, Alipay announced today. In Hong Kong, 336 OK convenience stores, 90 Bonjour cosmetics stores and 10 Giordano apparel stores have supported QRcode payments through Alipay Onsite — merchants accept payments by scanning QRcodes generated from customers’ Alipay Wallet app (as you can see below). Alipay, established as an online payment service for Alibaba’s Taobao marketplace years back, has been expanding aggressively to China’s offline business world in the past year with Alipay Onsite, a payment solution that includes QR code payment and acoustic payment. When Alipay Wallet was about to release the latest update, a screenshot of an English version of the app was leaked. Alibaba claimed Alipay Wallet was nearing 100 million installations in December 2013.
