How to use Alipay when traveling to Hong Kong and taking the subway?

Alipay can be used on the Hong Kong Metro.

Hong Kong's subways and buses support WeChat and Alipay payments. You only need to download the "Hong Kong Pass" application on Alipay and WeChat to use these two payment methods to take the subway and buses.

If you don’t want to use Alipay, you can buy an Octopus at a subway station in Hong Kong. You can keep recharging it with a deposit, and you can take buses, subways, and ferries, which is very convenient. In addition to being applicable to almost all public transportation in Hong Kong, Octopus can also be used for shopping payment in large chain stores, convenience stores, Café de Coral, McDonald’s and other stores.

Notes on traveling in Hong Kong

The transportation in Hong Kong is very convenient. An Octopus can take any transportation and reach anywhere. It should be noted that you need to queue up to take the bus. Some buses have back door boarding and front door check-in. Do not eat in the vehicle when riding in the vehicle. When riding on the subway escalator, be careful to "stand on the right and walk on the left." Also note that Hong Kong vehicles drive on the left side. When crossing the road, you must look to the right first, then to the left. The light is green before you can cross the road.
