Accessing the massive Chinese market means getting products and goods at factory prices. But the only payment gateway there is the Alipay app.
Since you own crypto assets like (USDT, BTC), it’s financially smart to leverage this liquidity to fund your purchases or trade directly, instead of freezing it or transferring it via slow traditional banks.
This guide explains how to use the Kazawallet card to pay via Alipay using crypto and pay in China just like a local.
Why is the Kazawallet card the best solution for Alipay?
To pay via Alipay using crypto, you need an international Visa card accepted by the Chinese system that accepts crypto top-ups, and gives you financial flexibility:
- Turn Crypto Profits into Products: You can deposit your crypto balance (USDT, BTC…) into Kazawallet, exchange it to a (USD/USDT/USDC) balance, and use it directly to pay.
- Unlock Chinese Stores: Most local Chinese sites don’t accept foreign Visa cards directly, but they accept (Alipay). By linking your Kazawallet card to Alipay, you break this barrier and open the door to importing and buying using your crypto profits.
- Safety in Chinese Apps (Freeze Feature): Hesitant to save your main bank card in foreign apps? That’s normal. The Kazawallet virtual card is the solution: top it up with the purchase amount only, and after paying via Alipay, freeze it instantly.
- Massive Commercial Funding: If you are importing goods, the card’s high daily limit ($200,000) covers your large commercial payments via Alipay without obstacles.
- Clear Fees: Kazawallet only charges a top-up fee (1.5%).
- Added Protection: The card is protected by (3D Secure), which means when you pay, you’ll receive an (OTP) code to your registered email to confirm the transaction and prevent fraud.
