Your First Step to China
Traveling to China is different from anywhere else. We help you navigate the essentials—from mobile payments to finding foreigner-friendly hotels—so you can focus on the adventure.
Why China Requires Special Preparation
China operates differently from most countries. Mobile payments dominate, Google services are restricted, and many systems are designed primarily for Chinese residents. We help you bridge that gap.
Mobile-First China
Cash is rarely accepted. Everything runs through Alipay and WeChat Pay—even street vendors.
Different Internet
Google, Facebook, WhatsApp, and many familiar apps don't work here without preparation.
