Tencent’s cross-border payment platform TenPay Global and Mastercard Move, the money movement division of Mastercard, have entered into a partnership aimed at enabling transparent and quick digital remittances to Weixin Pay, the mobile payment platform within China’s Weixin ecosystem.

Users worldwide who are eligible will be able to transfer funds such as salaries and family support to Weixin Pay Wallet Balances or to bank cards connected with Weixin Pay directly, via Mastercard Move network.

The partnership links Mastercard Move’s international money transfer network with Weixin’s significant user base.

This integration is intended to create a “seamless pathway” for cross-border transactions into mainland China.

TenPay Global (Singapore) CEO Wenhui Yang said: “We are committed to helping users stay connected wherever they are. Together with Mastercard, we are unlocking new opportunities and greater convenience for people around the world to send money back home.

“This marks another step forward in supporting the growing money transfer needs of a globally connected user base, ensuring funds arrive swiftly and safely in an everyday platform they trust. We will continue to build solutions that foster cross-border connectivity and create meaningful value for both senders and recipients.”

Mastercard Move currently connects to around ten billion endpoints globally, including bank accounts, wallets, cards, and cash payout locations.

With this partnership, the service will now be accessible to more than 1.4 billion users of Weixin and WeChat.

Mastercard Move offers rapid money transfer options for banks, non-bank financial institutions, and their clients, both within countries and across borders.

Mastercard Asia Pacific commercial new payment flows executive vice president Anouska Ladds said: “Across Asia Pacific, digital wallets are already an integral part of everyday life. With this collaboration, recipients gain fast, secure and transparent access to funds right where they already pay.

“It’s exactly how we’re driving payments modernisation across the region together with our partners: embedding financial services into everyday life, expanding access, and empowering people and organisations to thrive in today’s digitally connected economy.”

TenPay Global, by integrating the Weixin ecosystem, international payment partners and global users, delivers comprehensive payment solutions for cross-border remittances, commerce, and consumption.

In October 2025, Mastercard unveiled enhancements to its commercial payment offering.
