SINGAPORE, June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TenPay Global, Tencent Financial Technology's cross-border payment platform, today announced the launch of its innovative "Remit to China for Non-Chinese Citizens" feature. International users holding foreign passports can now send remittances directly from their home country to China. This enhanced feature provides a seamless solution for international users to enjoy greater flexibility and convenience for their payment needs across China.

TenPay Global's cross-border remittance platform connects the Weixin ecosystem with global remittance institutions.
