Alibaba\u2019s Alipay, or \u201czhi fu bao\u201d in Chinese, a multi-function cellphone app similar to Apple Pay, has changed the way Chinese people pay for items both online or at the store. Thankfully, it has a built-in function for sending money overseas. The catch is only Chinese nationals or foreigners with a Chinese green card can send money abroad with the app. However, you could always take advantage of the loophole of having a Chinese friend send money for you. Considering the time and pain Alipay can save you, this option is well worth calling your friend for a favor.<\/p>\n

The process is similar to wiring money from a bank; only in this case you are the banker. You will need the receiver\u2019s full name as printed on their identification, the country they are in, their address in that country, the name and address of their bank, and the bank\u2019s SWIFT code. You can reference this handy image guide that translates the icons into English and lays out the steps to make the transfer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2022 Fees: For transfers up to 100,000 RMB, you will be charged anywhere from 70-120RMB. Users transferring amounts over 100,001 RMB can expect fees between 140-260RMB.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2022 Time: After the transaction goes through, the balance will show up in the overseas account anywhere from 3-5 days.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2022 Bottom Line: If you have a trusty Chinese friend who can help you with the transfer, this is a really easy option you can do with a mobile phone.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are the steps.<\/strong><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Press the \u201cAlipay\u201d button, then \u201cMore.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

3. On the next page, tap \u201cInternational Transfer\u201d to enter the international payment page.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

4. You will then have two choices: \u201cTransfer money abroad immediately\u201d and \u201cInvite others to pay money abroad,\u201d which will allow your family members or friends to make transfers through your phone.<\/p>\n

6. Check whether the receiver\u2019s country available in Alipay by tapping C in Step 4. This will bring up a drop-down menu of the country or regions to which you can transfer money via Alipay. Now jump to Step 8.<\/p>\n
