Tencent completed delivery of WeChat Pay acceptance stickers to LINE Pay membership shops.
Chinese travelers possibly pay with WeChat Pay by reading a QR code in LINE Pay membership shops in Japan. LINE membership shops accordingly access the outbound travel market of China and at the same time step forward in cashless payment.
