UnionPay International (UPI) is the largest card payment organization in the world, with over 7 billion issued cards (debit and credit cards combined). It was founded in 2002 to unify the card network in China. Although the vast majority of Chinese consumers prefer Alipay and WeChat Pay, accepting UnionPay cards is an important backup channel to cover the preferred payment methods fully. On our platform, we support two different types of integration:

• ExpressPay: This integration requires no redirect and supports recurring transactions. Please note that this integration has a chargeback risk.

• SecurePay: This integration offers consumer authentication on the UnionPay platform. The consumer is redirected and can select multiple payment methods, including online banking, mobile banking, and UnionPay-issued cards. There is no chargeback risk with this integration.
