Apple Pay
Apple Pay is the default contactless wallet for iPhone and Apple Watch users, offering fast, private, tokenized tap-to-pay accepted in 80+ countries with no usage fee. Apple Cash adds US-only peer-to-peer payments inside iMessage. Excellent for everyday spending within the Apple ecosystem but offers no standalone account or Android support.

Alipay
Alipay is one of China's two dominant payment super-apps, with over a billion users and QR-code acceptance across virtually all Chinese merchants, bundling payments, transfers, investing and lifestyle services. Foreign visitors can pay via the Tour Pass feature but face FX spreads and verification hurdles. Essential for spending in China but of limited use elsewhere.
