TITLIS Cableways announces Alipay acceptance

Switzerland’s TITLIS Cableways has worked with SIX Payment Services to enable Chinese tourists to pay with Alipay at its cash registers.

Peter Reinle, Director Marketing at TITLIS Cableways, says: "We constantly endeavour to support our guests with new technology and to offer them the payment means they are used to."

Roger Niederer, Head Merchant Services at SIX Payment Services, adds: "Of the more than 520 million Alipay users in China, over 12 million travelled to Europe last year. We wish to provide our merchants with the simplest, quickest and most reliable payment process. For SIX it was therefore self-evident that we needed to include Alipay in our acceptance portfolio and provide Chinese tourists with the payment solution they prefer and trust – irrespective of where in the world they are and at what altitude above sea level."
