OkePay, the comprehensive back-end Payment Platform operated by RHCO, can accept standard credit and debit cards, such as Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, UnionPay, and other mobile wallets and e-vouchers. The integration of Alipay and WeChat Pay propels OkePay to another level of global reach, further expanding its significant portfolio of payment methods.

Merchants will be able to accept one-time and recurring payments from China and Asia’s leading local e-wallet holders in the currency relevant to that payment method.
