HitPay has officially rolled out its latest transaction service for local merchants operating in the Philippines, a gateway that enables local businesses to accept funds seamlessly from over one billion global users of WeChat Pay.

Merchants can now cater to the growing influx of international tourists by offering them a highly familiar digital wallet option during checkout.

The payment system automatically processes these foreign currency transactions and settles the final funds directly in Philippine pesos.

Sellers can capture these cross-border payments through multiple digital channels, including online checkout portals and custom payment links.

Physical storefronts can also utilise the platform to generate dynamic borderless QR codes for instantaneous point of sale transactions.

The company explicitly stated that the new payment feature requires absolutely no complicated technical setup or additional software integration.

Business owners simply need to activate the option directly within their existing merchant dashboard to begin accepting foreign transactions.

Eliminating common checkout friction points helps retail businesses capture a significantly larger share of regional tourist spending.
