WeChatPay is now a payment option on the Allied Wallet online payment platform.

The addition reflects the evolving payment landscape taking place, according to a press release.

"The main card brands clearly aren't the only preferred payment methods when nearly a billion users have now switched to WeChat Pay and countless other users are using new alternative payment options all over the world," stated the release.

WeChat, noted the release, has over one billion users and WeChat Pay has over 900 million active users every month.

WeChat Pay account holders can load their Allied Wallet digital eWallet account with money from their WeChat Pay account.

"We're very happy announce our compatibility with WeChat. It's one of the world's largest apps used by over a billion people… Forbes even described it as one of the world's most powerful apps,” said Allied Wallet CEO Andy Khawaja in the release.
