Pay with confidence, even when the line is moving fast.
Mobile payment is part of everyday life in China. These short phrases help when a shopkeeper asks you to scan, show a code, or confirm your payment.
Useful phrases to practice
Ask how to pay
怎么付款？(zěn me fù kuǎn?) means “How do I pay?” Use it when you are unsure whether to scan a merchant code or show your own.
Say you will use WeChat
我用微信支付 (wǒ yòng Wēi Xìn zhī fù) means “I will pay with WeChat Pay.” Replace 微信 with 支付宝 (Zhī Fù Bǎo) for Alipay.
Confirm completion
付好了 (fù hǎo le) means “I have paid.” It is a simple way to confirm after a successful payment.
