WeChat Pay has many advantages compared to other forms of payment in Taiwan. It’s quick, secure and conveniently linked to your bank card, as well as being widely accepted at most online retailers and gaming sites. Additionally, you can earn a host of rewards when using WeChat Pay, as well as more transparent data on the payments you’ve made.
However, one of the major drawbacks of WeChat Pay in Taiwan is that it can sometimes be difficult to connect your bank card, and it’s not available for all Taiwanese bank accounts. Further, it must be backed up by a mobile phone with a valid Chinese SIM card, and users must be in Taiwan or China to be able to use the platform.
