Beijing enables QR code payment in the subway

Beijing enables QR code payment in the subway No more waiting in long queues to buy tickets People in Beijing can now use QR codes as tickets across all subway lines, after 6 million passengers tried it during a trial over 20 days. They need to download an app called Ruubypay and connect it with either their bank account, Alipay, or JD Finance account. A QR code will be generated as you open the app, and by putting your phone near the QR code reader, it will let you pass through almost as fast as using an actual ticket.Beijing’s subway already lets people pay on phones with NFC, which is how most mobile payment services (like Apple Pay) work in the rest of the world.
