According to media reports, Alipay said this is a brand new way of transfer, and you can transfer money without an account. Share with each other, WeChat / QQ / Weibo / DingTalk and other channels;

On October 16th, some netizens found that Alipay can already transfer money to WeChat friends, but it is not a direct transfer. Instead, a QR code will be generated after entering the amount, and then WeChat/QQ can be scanned to collect it. If it is not collected for more than 24 hours, it will be automatically returned. A maximum of 2,000 yuan can be transferred out for a single transaction.

According to media reports, Alipay said that this is a brand new way of transfer, and you can transfer money without an account. The usage process includes: transfer amount, providing methods for collecting designated users, etc.; sharing with the other party, WeChat / QQ / Weibo / Dingding and other channels; scanning the code to collect, the system will automatically notify you when the other party receives it.

Sohu Technology has tested the transfer process of Alipay to WeChat. Click the "Transfer" icon in the Alipay navigation bar. After opening and folding, you can find the "Transfer WeChat friends" icon.

After clicking this icon, you can enter the transfer amount and password. At the same time, in order to increase the security of the transfer, Alipay provides options such as "scan the code to collect", "the other party needs to verify my first name when collecting", and "specified user to collect".

After the above steps are completed, Alipay will automatically generate a forwarding QR code, which can share the QR code to the recipient's WeChat.

However, after the payee scans the QR code in WeChat, he receives a prompt "If you need to browse, press and hold the URL to copy and use the browser to access it."

After following the prompt operation, you can reach the Alipay payment interface. After the payee clicks "Receive Now", he can receive the money into his Alipay account.

From the above operation steps, it can be seen that the so-called "Alipay can transfer money to WeChat" is not what the public understands that money in the Alipay account can be transferred to WeChat wallet.

WeChat only plays the role of sending and receiving QR code pictures, and does not actually participate in the process of money flow. The money transferred from the payer's Alipay account is also transferred to the payer's Alipay account.

Faced with this new function, some people wondered: "I still need an Alipay account to receive the money." Some netizens also sighed: "The useless function has been added again." returns Sohu , see more
