To successfully receive your first Alipay transfer, please follow these streamlined steps:
- Link your bank account: First, link your bank account to Alipay by following the instructions provided in English and Chinese. This step is key to starting your transfer.
- Submit required documents: If Alipay asks for any documents to verify your account, be sure to provide them promptly. This will help the process go smoothly.
- Action within 72 hours: Ask your recipient in China to link their bank account details to the Alipay app within this timeframe.
- Stay updated: If you notice that your transfer is still pending, log into your Alipay account to check for any alerts or requests. It's important to stay on top of any notifications.
- Automatic Cancellation Alert: Remember, if the bank account isn't linked or the necessary details aren't provided to Alipay, the transfer will be automatically cancelled on the fourth day.
This should ensure a smooth process for receiving your transfer.
Please note:
You can only send money to Chinese citizens via Alipay.
