Taobao's support for WeChat payment is too troublesome for users to vomit 1. In the past two days, many media have disclosed screenshots of netizens. On the Taobao order page, users have seen "WeChat scan code payment" and "Go to WeChat to find a friend to help me pay".

However, through the way of screenshot scanning code payment and link sharing, it also attracted some users to vomit "too much trouble".

Does Taobao support WeChat payment?

According to the screenshots of netizens disclosed by many media, on the Taobao order page, some users saw "WeChat scan code payment" and "Go to WeChat to find a friend to help me pay".

Among them, "WeChat scan code payment" is different from direct access or jump. In the order submission interface, users need to make WeChat payment through the QR code given by Taobao. In the first step, the user needs to take a screenshot to save the WeChat payment code. In the second step, they need to send screenshots to WeChat. Third, they need to identify the QR code. The fourth step is to complete the payment.

In addition, "WeChat looking for friends to help me pay" means sending the payment link to WeChat friends for payment.

It should be noted that this function is still in the internal testing stage, and only some netizens can see it.

On the evening of March 28, the upstream journalist opened the Taobao order payment page, and had not found the entrance of WeChat scan code payment.

However, among the four payment channels currently supported: Alipay payment, flower garden installment, asking friends to help pay and change, the upstream news noticed that "asking friends to help pay" can send the link to WeChat and QQ friends by copying the payment link, and the other party can pay the order directly on WeChat.

"I think this is an important progress in the payment interconnection between the two giants. Tencent's payment products can enter the Ali ecosystem, and WeChat payment has expanded to important online e-commerce scenarios. Similarly, for Taobao merchants and users, there is also an additional payment option, which will help reduce the operating costs of merchants and improve the user experience. " Wang Pengbo, a senior analyst in the financial industry of Broadcom Consulting, commented.

However, judging from the feedback from netizens, the way of screenshot scanning code payment and link sharing has also attracted some users to vomit that "screenshot payment is too troublesome", and some netizens have called for "full opening as soon as possible".

In this regard, Wang Pengbo added, "If the process and links of the new payment method are complicated, it is expected that it will be difficult to change users' usage habits in Taobao."

Taobao's support for WeChat payment is too troublesome for users to vomit. The interconnection between Tencent and Taobao has gone further. Users can already choose WeChat payment after placing an order in Taobao App, but this function is currently in the internal testing stage, and only some users can see it.

According to the screenshots of netizens who invited internal testing on social media platforms, some users can already see "WeChat scan code payment" and "Go to WeChat to find friends to help me pay" on the Taobao App submission page. "WeChat scan code payment" can be paid through WeChat. The QR code given by Taobao, but it does not support automatic jump to WeChat payment. In other words, users need to save the QR code themselves and manually open the WeChat scan code to realize payment.

"Go to WeChat to find a friend to help me pay", users can copy the link and send it to WeChat friends for payment.

The reporter of Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily learned that this function is currently in the internal testing stage and has not been extended to all Taobao users. The reporter tried to make WeChat payment from Taobao, but because he was an uninvited user, he didn't get the corresponding payment path guidance.

An insider of Alibaba Group confirmed the news to the reporter of Science and Technology Innovation Board and called it "the general trend".

According to the reporter of Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, Taobao payment only supported Alipay, Bai Hua, asking for help from friends and change, all of which were limited to the internal ecosystem of Alibaba Group.

On September 9th, 20021year, the relevant departments of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organized Internet companies such as Alibaba, Tencent, ByteDance, Baidu, Huawei, Xiaomi, Momo, 360 and Netease to hold an "Administrative Guidance Meeting on Blocking Website Links". At the meeting, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology requested all platforms to unseal according to the standards before September 17, otherwise, disposal measures will be taken according to law.

Subsequently, all Internet companies gave their own responses and substantial opening actions.

202 1, 1 1, wechat announced that it supports open interoperability. External links can be opened directly in the wechat dialog box, and e-commerce links can be purchased directly without jumping to external apps. This is the first time since 20 13 that WeChat and Taobao have blocked each other's links.

Zhao Hongmin, a giant whale platform expert, said that Alibaba and Tencent have been shielded from each other for nine years, and in the previous years, they did play a role in protecting their traffic ecology. However, with the in-depth development of the Internet, the mutual shielding between the two sides has caused a huge digital divide and a bad user experience on the Internet.

Zhao Hongmin believes that mutual communication between the two sides can improve the user experience on the one hand. On the other hand, the Internet in China, in the case of integration and infiltration, can also release a huge explosive force to achieve the second spring growth again. At the same time, for many small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, there are more traffic opportunities and the possibility of entrepreneurial success is improved.

The reporter of Science and Technology Innovation Board found that under the Tencent system, QQ has broken through the "barrier" with other platforms. After QQ sends Taobao and Tik Tok links to friends, reporters can jump to the corresponding pages. The link of WeChat official account is copied to today's headlines and Baidu App, and you can also jump to the corresponding page after searching.

Taobao's support for WeChat payment is too troublesome for users to vomit. Recently, some users reported that Taobao has started to use WeChat payment for internal testing.

The reporter of China Times learned from insiders of Taobao that Taobao's function of using WeChat payment is only gradually open to some users and only supports some goods.

The specific method of use is also different from choosing Alipay and China UnionPay express payment. Taobao does not jump directly to WeChat payment, but uses WeChat scan code to confirm the payment on the order page, and a QR code will be displayed. Users can save the QR code and open the cashier to pay by scanning the code on WeChat. In addition, users can also send payment links to WeChat friends to assist in payment.

Wang Pengbo, a senior analyst in Broadcom's analysis financial industry, believes that this move is an important progress in the interconnection of payment fields. "Tencent's products can enter Ali's ecosystem, and WeChat payment has expanded to e-commerce scenarios that I have never imagined before.

For merchants and users on Taobao, there is also a paid option, which is conducive to reducing the operating costs of merchants, improving the user experience, and setting an example for further interconnection of the industry. "Wang Pengbo said.

Wang Pengbo pointed out to the reporter of China Times that interconnection is not only an initiative between the two giants, but also the interconnection of the entire payment industry. The starting point of interconnection must be beneficial to the whole industry and more small and medium-sized payment institutions and small and medium-sized Wechat business.

In 20 19, the central bank issued the Financial Science and Technology Development Plan (20 19―202 1), which proposed to promote the interconnection of barcode payment, study and formulate the technical standards for the interconnection of barcode payment, break through the barriers of barcode payment services, and realize mutual recognition and scanning of barcode labels of different apps and merchants.

Since last year, the interconnection in the payment field has been frequent, especially the "demolition of the wall" between Tencent and Ali has aroused great concern in the industry.

Last August, Taobao and Tmall increased the payment method of China UnionPay Express. At the same time, China UnionPay Express is also interoperable with WeChat payment, and China UnionPay Express can scan the receipt code of WeChat payment for payment.

Shortly thereafter, last June, 1 1, you can directly open the Taobao link in WeChat without copying the "Taobao password", which is considered to be an important step in the interconnection between Ali and Tencent. 165438+1October 29th, WeChat released an update description showing that external links can be accessed directly in the WeChat chat scene, and at the same time, external links of e-commerce are tried to be opened in the group chat, and users can choose external links independently in the future.

In other words, you can share the Taobao link directly on WeChat, click to enter the Taobao page, and complete the payment with Alipay. This feature update has covered all WeChat users at that time.

In Wang Pengbo's view, the main difficulty of Ali Tencent's interconnection in the payment field lies not in technology, but more likely in the income distribution of different scenarios and how Ali and Tencent gradually further integrate their own business ecology.

In the long run, the payment platform can take advantage of the opportunity of channel interconnection to integrate more external resources, scenarios and service providers, create a more decentralized and open platform, and provide corresponding products, services and traffic support for merchants in need.

Next, it is worth looking forward to when we can directly choose WeChat payment for payment in Taobao.
