China be like, do we even have to talk or stress anymore so my people created this, I’ve seen how it works, luckily Australia doesn’t have it yet until they control how technology works and not mess with.
Well, Alipay account also has a built in credit-card-like system which works like credit card but has much lower capacity. You still have to pay the bill, though.
While visa or mastercards takes 3 or 4 percent of your payment. Wechat only takes 0.3 percent or even none to small business. That is why this is so popular in China
Fred W The other advantage of QR base payment is that you don't need NFC for payment. You can use almost every phone for this kind of payment. You can't say the same with Android/Apple pay.
We Chinese will not be blindly arrogant. Most of us in China can see the world situation clearly, so we still believe that modesty and practical work are the truth, and we still understand that China still has a long way to go. We are not rising. We are just going to go back to where we should be, although it will take many years, but I believe the Chinese can do it.
When China is using cash, people say: what?? We are using Visa and Mastercard! When China is going cashless, people say: what? It's lack of privacy and freedom!
Pratyush Tripathy hello close minded western propaganda product. I'm from American and recently went abroad to China for a summer program. I don't want to explain much, all I'm gonna say is go there yourself before you can make any conclusions
Because it is, WeChat and Alibaba is being monitored, your purchases are transparent to the government, that's how they use it for big data promotional purposes, and also to monitor what you say in WeChat.
You do lack of privacy, goverment have all your data from WeChat and Alibaba. For freedom, you got freedom... As long as you agree with the chinese goverment
As if the western government doesn't know every detail of your transactions xD even you are not using Alipay or Wechat. Come on dude, everything you know about China is the same in the West. 'They could always know if they want to know.' For the sake of national security or interest :) Imagine if you hold terrorist-related and sensitive information on your PC, I wonder how long does it take for the police to burst into your house.
I remember this one time where this amusement park DIDN'T accept wechat pay. And I was so shocked. Completely ruined the trip 0/10 lmao. But that was just so unlucky when it actually happens
@Eric Smith Yea, only stupid conspiracy theorists will believe so. Just keep using your paper bills, do not get advanced. I guess your ancestors did the same thing like you when paper money was introduced.
i just want some food Of course it’s the same there, Chengdu is a big city. You need to download wechat or alipay to survive in China, as many vendors don’t accept cash.
Life is about FUN woah really? They just don't accept cash? I have wechat and alipay but I've never use the wallet before coz in my country we don't have those scan service in most shops. If my topup balance is in my currency, will it work in china? Or if my wechat wallet is registered with my country's card
I just want some food: The whole china is now cashless, even in the rural areas. Cash is of course accepted. You can try, but to be safe, you better deposit money in China using a Chinese bank card or have your friend to send money to you. Alipay accepts foreign credit cards, but you have to pay 3% service fee.
My friends been to China last week and told me a story : he went to a supermarket was ready to pay by cash but the staff looked at him with shocking face but still give him the change back . It’s Super brand new money! He said the cash not been used for too long . And it’s brand new lol
Too true! When I was in China, the street food vendors I went to told me I should get WeChat/Alipay! Ended up taking their advice and it was one of the best decisions I made in China 😂
The day a beggar on the street showed me his Wechat QR Code after I claimed I had no cash I burst out laughing. I took a photo with him, Scanned his code and "paid" him
When my phone was out of battery in China, I think it was a disaster... But luckily I can rent a portable power bank from a convenient store, and returned it to another convenient store
wow, the world is fucked i remember the days when people could survive even without electricity, I know someone who heads out into the wilderness in northern europe and survives for up to 6 months without buying food from shops, now that is an incredible human.
Finally, somebody is showing the real China to the world. I hope more foreigners can come to China and discover it by yourself not only from western media. Anyway, congratulations you have earned yourself a new subscriber!
Argon Even you speak a kind of rare language, you can live in China well, but if you want to know more about Chinese culture deeply, perhaps you need learn a little Mandarin.
Lived in China from 2010-2014. When I moved back to the US felt like I went back to a society 10-20 years backwards. Can’t believe people still went to Costco and target when I did all my shopping over the net in China.

Great video, lived in Shanghai for 5 years and what's talked about here is no exaggeration - it's exactly how things go here now! There were even more examples the guys didn't mention here, such as paying for your gas, water, and electricity, all on WeChat, etc etc !
Dennis Oo Jenn Ning This is completely different cashless you r talking about. its more like walletless or e cash. Basically i can transfer u money as fast as deliver u the cash. U can txt msg me with a mount of money within wechat and once i received the message and accept the money, i can use it right way. i dont even need to have a credit card or any bank card to use wepay. As long as i can get people send money to me, i.can also transfer those money to a bank card.
I am a Canadian permanent resident who has living in Canada for 8 year. It’s so great to find out my country has such developed technology. I would definitely go back China after finish my study.
As a Chinese, I haven't used cash for a long time. Even in backward areas, using mobile payment has become a habit of the local people, which makes it inconvenient for me to travel to Europe or the United States.
Advanced to the level that a beggar came to me asking for money I said I didn’t have cash , he said “it’s fine I’ve got QR code for wechat and Ali”. (Later on I realized tht he’s not the only one)
The most amazing thing about it that i saw in Shanghai was when my girlfriend bought some cheap bowls from a road-side pushcart... And they accepted cashless payment. And the auntie selling sweets beside that cart with nothing but a rattan basket also had a QR code to make payment for... They're way ahead.
That charging box he was using, is giving you free charge the first half hour, so basically if you charge your phone every half hour, it cost you simple 0 RMB. and those powerbanks could be placed into other box in completely other location. It's like a huge network of free powerbanks, which you just need to remind yourself of putting it back before 30 min mark, else onwards it will cost you 10 rmb or something every 1 hour, something around that.
I am currently living in China and I can say this is very accurate! However I don't live in the big cities so we don't have the bikes and what not, but every shop to even the mom and pop shops use wechat and allipay for just about everything! It's quite nice!
Komorebi23 haha yes I am aware, question is, will the world follow? Anyways I already watch a channel which covers the more cautious outlook:ChinaUncensored
Robert Hardy If you been to china, you know its totally different. You just cant buy these days in europe literally everything by just scanning the persons phone. Even old grannys selling pineapple on the street have it 😄
Hi guys, he might just inexperienced in performance to use this App, it’s also make me confused why shake the phone after online purchased? while we didn’t really do same things in Uk.
Because marketing in North America is a big contribution to the success of these companies. Also, people are just naive. They think whatever is unveiled in the US is the best thing in the world. Little do they know China is years ahead in many fields of technology. People think iPhone 7 was the first phone without the headphone jack and they would call that innovation...
This felt like one of those 1950s educational films about what life in the future will be like. I can't believe this is our world! And I kind of want to move to China.
I got condoms, which is an excellent idea to some, but to others, it would be alright in having something else. In any case, I really do not know whether it was joke, as I was only a tourist. Whatever it might be, I think it was original and have no complaints. This is another form of "innovation".
Revelation (Signs of End Times) 13:16-18 ，the Holy Bible Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666
doch doch doch,,i am a chinese but studing in germany ,Rossmann now is able to use wechat and alipay.Einfach sagst du ,kann ich mit alipay bezahlen,dann zeigt die Dame dir den QRcode
All I can say is thank god I found this channel! Combines useful info I'd like to know with some entertaining, light-hearted comedy. Everything else I've seen or read about China is usually so serious, but it's really nice to see the bright side on things. Keep up the good work guys!
From the infrastructure perspective, only you have network connection anyway, you can pay anyway. Chinese government requests their main telecom companies which are held by the country to build their network as large as possible, and Huawei provides the cheap equipment they need.
chinese subtitle is on point, very local, this is the third video i watched on china going cashless, the other two being wsj and cbs, this is by far the best, good job
@@savage-jg8li infrastructure still poor? mate I'm a Canadian who's lived in the USA, Australia and China. China's infrastructure and public transport are already way ahead of the ones in Canada, USA, and Australia.
Robert Hardy Trust me CCP got no time to check everyone’s shopping lists and why should I bring cards if I can pay anything by my phone. Cards can’t replace a phone but my phone can replace cards. Simple is that.
yes, also search this video "Take a Tour of a Hema Supermarket and Experience New Retail", this is what Amazon try to do when Amazon bought Whole Foods supermarket chain
Actually 2 years before the Alibaba company has an idea about, lets say 'no server restaurant'. They design the table as a big screen, so the customers can directly order food, then the dishes can be sent by robots. I have to admit it's hard to achieve, but nowadays people in china already can order food by scanning the QR code on table, in economic way it could deduct paper use, and human resource.
While visa or mastercards takes 3 or 4 percent of your payment. Wechat only takes 0.3 persent or even none to small business. That is why this is so popular in China
@@michaelnj700 no it's trues , when you buy something ,if you pay the money in Wechat ,there no taxe or any percent ,unless you wana transfor wechat money to your bank account or credit card ,it will take only 0.3
I rather live in a cash society like Australia where all shops close at 6pm and all banks close at 4pm and the nearest atm is 3km away so that my money can last me much longer.
These technology are amazing! As a Chinese I'm proud of my country! But on the other side, these kind of remind me of some episodes in Black Mirror. Things can go wrong if personal information is not well handled
well, you fear correctly. All those transactions are tracked by the government openly. They are using those data to create a score system for each citizen. You buy too much crap, your point go down.
I like how they speak fluent Mandarin and have a good understanding of the Chinese culture but decide to shake hands with every cashier they see like some over-enthusiastic tourists.
i like indians, most of them anyway. many of them show up at my job site, most are very respectful and do not cause any problems. but you'll see a lot of anti indian from right wing racists about how indians are dirty and third world, the chinese respects indians and never says these things.
Visited China since i came to Canada last year. Surprised how fast China is developing. Everything is so convenience, the services are so good especially in restaurants. Canada falls behind in every aspects.
Constant Throwing There's some really interesting and funny wechat "emojis" called微信表情(wechat expressions) that essentially function like memes but yeah, it's all in mandarin.
Revelation (Signs of End Times) 13:16-18 ，the Holy Bible Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.

Chinese is starting to pay without phones ,last time l went to a grocery but forgot my phone ,I showed myself before the cam and took my stuff ,that's amazing.
Here in the Philippines, we already have the option to do cashless transaction using QR Codes from GCash and Paymaya. I have tried it and it's convenient.
I agree, I live in Cagayan de Oro and most of the Malls, convenience store in here accepts Gcash or Paymaya, and I always makes sure to have a money in my account rather than in my Physical wallet 🤣..Maybe some coins for transportation.
More and more Chinese oversea students start to feel same why with you ,my sister told me that "since our motherland now getting better and able to provide more chances ,and even very likely to ahead other countries in many perspectives, why we need stay at a place where we are not belong to, i absolutely going back to China as soon as i graduate"
I was talking about my sister not you 而且既然不是那个意思那么请问你到底是什么意思，前后矛盾，装逼货。PS. 我也在澳大利亚十多年了，所以更加觉得你是个装逼货，并且可以告诉你在那边少自我高潮了即使你拿到国籍也毫无意义，顶多就是个黄皮白心的香蕉人，一个人的归属属性是从生下来那刻天然附带不为物理转变所转移的，你永远不会属于那个地方，总有一天你会明白这个道理。
Great video, will surely open up the eyes of many viewers who've not been to China before. The biggest problem with this cashless revolution is that foreign visitors are extremely inconvenienced. I visit for business all the time and I cant use these two apps to pay because I can't open a local bank account (I need proof of local income to do so), while credit cards issued outside of China don't work either. Only useful app for me is Didi which allows foreign cards.
It's sort of similar everywhere now, in the UK I don't use cash, everything is contactless via Apple Pay and Android Pay, plus money transfers can be done over iMessage, I think China was the trailblazer for the whole cashless revolution
I guess the main reason Chinese companies adopt to QR code is because it is more compatible with different phones. Plus you don’t have to have a credit card to use them. Apple Pay is still largely based on credit economy while in China it is never big. But I do love Apple Pay though. I personally find it safer. And what’s funny is people don’t really use Apple Pay in the USA which is ridiculous cuz they basically invented it:
Ryan Morrison Apple Pay is just an alternative to credit card taps. If you don’t have a credit card/debit card , it’s useless. Wechat wallet enables a 8 year old kid to pay for anything in the city if the parent just sends money into the kid’s account.
Convenience comes at a cost. Life requires balance. As a navy seals documentary mentioned. - "The technology is great, but it does fail and had we not been able to do things the old fashioned way, we would be in trouble!" Beware Greeks baring gifts. The Japanese keep cash at home. Surely any sane person would want More Cash, Not Less! Money must be solid. Transferable and agreed value, hence why during uncertain times, Gold, Silver ( which is money) and precious metals go up in value as they are solid, finite in value and transferable.
Foreign celebrities have been going to China to earn money for a while. They earn way more in China. Trust me. The Chinese entertainment industry is just flooded and corrupted with money.
When I travel around China, I normally just need my cell phone and ID card. When I am back to US, I really feel outdated for those stupid credit cards.
cashless not only change payment,but also make China saver and better than ever. you live in your country still have to put a little bit cash in your wallet,in shops restaurants must have cash. that is why in your country some criminals still on the street.several years China also had this problem. since cashless come, no wallet. criminal rob your mobile but can not transfer money. rob shops or restaurants can not get cash.... less and less criminal on the street in China(imagine that happen also in your country). that is why cards payment can not compare.
@@ezioauditore5616 Nope, No beggar is your imagination. They provide a QR code on their bowl to be scanned. Still, there are still cash users and beggars are still earning a lot.
I like these guys so much..sooo..soooo much that I watch their videos six seven times. They are very hilarious. Their mastery of Chinese language is very impressive.
I am chinese. And credit card is fully developped in china. I have visa and master cards. And also have bank-union cards which are china credit card standard. China cashless is not because credit card,just it is so covienced.
Yeah, it must feel awesome to be completely in the hands of a private company who can (intentionally or accidentally) screw you big time. So much for privacy and freedom.
+Alexandro Sanchez So you are saying Bank of America, Chase Morgan, Wells Fargo are not private companies but controlled by the government? So much for privacy and freedom. I feel bad for American people.
+Alexandro Sanchez You mean Bank of America is owned by government? what a moron are you? Not mentioning that there are still so many places not even taking credit card in US, I have to carry the cash when I am going out. So fking inconvenience compare to the cashless ecosystem in China
@杨同林 You'd be surprised. There is a such thing as big data micro-management. The government isn't literally watching your every move. They are watching you based on algorithms and "key-words". You should look into books around big data. Having excess to this data makes it easier to control people since they are all in one systematized platform. They exist not just in government but also in private enterprises. The more you're aware of how we're being spied on, the more weary you should be lol.

As long as i can get people send money to me, i.can also transfer those money to a bank card.
Doesnt matter what you guys are fighting for, China is still advancing than your country that's the fact.

To be noted that compulsory cashless payment is illegal in China. All business owners have to accept cash if cash is paid.
Yes and they do accept it.
I went to Beijing and MANY bars and restaurants did not accept cash at all.
That is the law, but it is hardly enforced.

That charging box he was using, is giving you free charge the first half hour, so basically if you charge your phone every half hour, it cost you simple 0 RMB. and those powerbanks could be placed into other box in completely other location. It's like a huge network of free powerbanks, which you just need to remind yourself of putting it back before 30 min mark, else onwards it will cost you 10 rmb or something every 1 hour, something around that.

Amazon may be the first one to open this kind of store, but china has better environment to rapidly develop the concept
Actually 2 years before the Alibaba company has an idea about, lets say 'no server restaurant'. They design the table as a big screen, so the customers can directly order food, then the dishes can be sent by robots. I have to admit it's hard to achieve, but nowadays people in china already can order food by scanning the QR code on table, in economic way it could deduct paper use, and human resource.

Constant Throwing There's some really interesting and funny wechat "emojis" called微信表情(wechat expressions) that essentially function like memes but yeah, it's all in mandarin.
So it's memes, but not in the way I'd know them?
What about formats, do you know if they have satirical video/ audio edits that serve as memes?

Great video, will surely open up the eyes of many viewers who've not been to China before.
The biggest problem with this cashless revolution is that foreign visitors are extremely inconvenienced. I visit for business all the time and I cant use these two apps to pay because I can't open a local bank account (I need proof of local income to do so), while credit cards issued outside of China don't work either.
Only useful app for me is Didi which allows foreign cards.
Tnx for this bit of information. Appreciated.
I work and live I China for over 12 years. When I go back to Europe I feel I go back in time with many things
It's sort of similar everywhere now, in the UK I don't use cash, everything is contactless via Apple Pay and Android Pay, plus money transfers can be done over iMessage, I think China was the trailblazer for the whole cashless revolution
To be fair QR codes are pretty antiquated....
Honestly in China is on another level. Kinda scary at the same time. People tend to spend more
I guess the main reason Chinese companies adopt to QR code is because it is more compatible with different phones. Plus you don’t have to have a credit card to use them. Apple Pay is still largely based on credit economy while in China it is never big. But I do love Apple Pay though. I personally find it safer. And what’s funny is people don’t really use Apple Pay in the USA which is ridiculous cuz they basically invented it:
Ryan Morrison Apple Pay is just an alternative to credit card taps. If you don’t have a credit card/debit card , it’s useless. Wechat wallet enables a 8 year old kid to pay for anything in the city if the parent just sends money into the kid’s account.
Ryan Morrison plus here in Canada I’m always in situations 60% of the time where the POS machine only accepts chip card with no tap function.
WOW the US is SO behind on this. Great stuff.
lol glad that i live in China.
Apple Pay and Samsung/ android pay will take 10 years to get to where Wechat and alipay is now.
@azul lapis are u smart?
I KNOW. So pathetic.
Well HEY. Aim high brother. You could do so much better than ND. Where do ya wanna be?
