Danish A. Lakhani, CEO NayaPay said: “When we started NayaPay, our ambition was to give Pakistanis the same freedom and confidence with money that people enjoy in the world’s most advanced markets. This step brings us closer, not only by making payments abroad seamless but by making them universally accessible and easy on the pocket.

Today’s announcement marks the next phase of the growing partnership between Alipay+ and NayaPay, which began in early 2024 when NayaPay became Pakistan’s first fintech to enable direct QR payments at over 80 million merchants in China. The expanded integration now brings that seamless experience to markets worldwide, offering Pakistanis greater convenience, acceptance and cost-efficiency when traveling or shopping internationally.
