Throughout recent years, Thailand has seen an influx of tourists hosting over 10 million travelers from China annually. Thailand, Japan, and Singapore are named the top 3 destinations for Chinese tourists when traveling abroad. The Center for Economic and Business Forecasting of the University of the Thai Chamber of Commerce (TCC) has estimated that consumer spending during this year would see a record high of 10 years. At least 58 billion THB will be spent due to the influx of tourism, high demand and the increased price of goods. Aside from the traditional methods of payment like cash and credit cards, over 63% of Chinese tourists said that they used Alipay to pay for shopping, dining, and other tourism-related activities while traveling abroad.
