Aldi introduces Alipay

Monday 6 September 2021 11:00 CET | News

Germany-based supermarket chain Aldi Süd has announced expanding its payment options to include Alipay, the payment system of the China-based technology company Alibaba Group.

If Aldi Süd customers want to pay with Alipay, they must scan a QR code at the terminal after entering their chosen items in the Alipay smartphone app. 

A mobile phone with an NFC chip, as is required for other payment services, is therefore not required. The money is then debited from the Alipay account, which must be linked to a Chinese bank account or an international bank card linked to Alipay.
