UnionPay has partnered with payment solutions provider AXS to introduce a new bill payment service tailored for Mainland Chinese residents living in Singapore.
By leveraging the UnionPay app, users can now conveniently pay various bills, including household expenses, educational fees, electricity, condo management fees, season parking, town council fees, healthcare, and home services, directly from their Mainland China-issued UnionPay cards.
This seamless cross-border payment solution allows users to consolidate their bills and make payments through the AXS tile within the UnionPay app.
Users can add up to eight payment items in one transaction, with a maximum payment limit of S$2,000 and a 2% service fee.
However, payments for condominium Management Corporation Strata Title (MCST) can only be made as standalone transactions.
Transactions take 3-5 business days to process, and users will receive an e-receipt via email.
Chin Mun Chung, CEO of AXS Services, said,
“By integrating UnionPay’s widely downloaded UnionPay app with AXS’s trusted payment platform, we are empowering Chinese nationals to manage essential bill payments in Singapore, seamlessly and securely.
This collaboration is a testament to our ongoing efforts to provide innovative solutions that cater to the needs of a global user base.”
Carine Low, Singapore Country Manager of UnionPay International, said,
“AXS is the most commonly used fast and secure bill payment platform in Singapore. We are very pleased to collaborate with AXS to offer yet another bill payment option on UnionPay App.
This will allow Mainland China residents living in Singapore the timely and effortless payment of their monthly bills. I have no doubt that UnionPay App users will find convenience in paying for bills instantly with AXS.”
