NayaPay, one of Pakistan’s fastest-growing fintech platforms, has launched global QR payments in collaboration with Alipay+, Ant International’s global wallet gateway. The partnership enables millions of NayaPay users to scan and pay at Alipay+ merchants in more than 50 countries, connecting Pakistani consumers to a vast global ecosystem spanning retail, dining, transport, healthcare, entertainment, and more.
With this launch, NayaPay users can now enjoy faster, more affordable, and secure payments abroad. The new feature delivers lower costs, reduced friction, and a seamless checkout experience wherever they travel. Alipay+ currently connects 40 international mobile payment partners to over 150 million merchants worldwide.
The milestone further reinforces NayaPay’s commitment to offering world-class payment experiences to Pakistani consumers and businesses. The addition of global QR acceptance complements NayaPay’s expanding suite of services, which includes Visa debit cards, local and international money transfers, bill payments, home remittances, and more.
Danish A. Lakhani, CEO of NayaPay, said:
“When we started NayaPay, our ambition was to give Pakistanis the same freedom and confidence with money that people enjoy in the world’s most advanced markets. This step brings us closer, not only by making payments abroad seamless but by making them universally accessible and easy on the pocket. Whether our users are studying, working, or exploring the world, they deserve a global payment experience that keeps up with them.”
Pan Yan, Head of Strategic Partnership Office for Alipay+, Ant International, added:
“Our goal at Alipay+ is to connect anyone, anywhere in a seamless, digitally-enabled manner. The growth of mobile platforms like NayaPay is transforming how millions of people travel and interact with local merchants. Through this next step of our collaboration, we’re jointly making it easier for Pakistanis to explore the world, and do so with the same trusted and familiar experience, just like home.”
Today’s announcement marks the next phase of the deepening partnership between Alipay+ and NayaPay. The collaboration began in early 2024 when NayaPay became Pakistan’s first fintech to enable direct QR payments at more than 80 million merchants in China. The expanded integration now brings that same seamless, cost-efficient experience to markets worldwide, offering Pakistanis greater convenience and acceptance when traveling or shopping internationally.
