Alipay and six European digital wallets join hands to increase adoption of mobile payments with QR code


By Zen Soo

The six wallets are working with the Chinese payments provider towards rolling out a QR code format provided by Alipay, so that users of any wallet will be able to make mobile payments at merchants across Europe that already accept payments for the other wallets.

Six mobile wallets in Europe together with Alipay will collaborate and adopt a unified Quick Response (QR) code for mobile payments, allowing users of each wallet to pay for their purchases across 10 countries in Europe.

The six European mobile wallets include Austria’s Bluecode, Finland’s ePassi and Pivo, Oslo-based Vipps, Spain’s Momo as well as Portugal’s Pagaqui.
