Alipay Registration

1. Entry www.alipay.com on your computer, click the 【立即注册】

2. Alipay is set up to register you by phone number by default.

On this page, enter your country，phone number , and captcha. You may have to complete an additional step where Alibaba will send you an SMS to your phone number containing a password, which you'll then enter onto the page - similar to the process of getting on most public WIFI networks in China.

Also, note that Alipay separates country by region. Unfortunately, not all countries are listed under this menu - if yours isn't, it's not yet possible for you to register. 

3. The next screen is where you'll enter your personal account info.  Click the 【确定】

4. Success!

Congratulations, you've completed the registration process!

From here, we recommend you get your account verified to access all of Alipay's features. Some users report getting by with an unverified account by topping up their Alipay using e-banking (more on this later) - but verification is the next official step.

Alipay Verification

1. Enter the verification portal. 

On your Alipay homepage, click the "未认证" link next to your email address to enter the verification portal.

2. Choose the "foreigner" option on the next screen, click "外国". Then enter your information.

3. Enter your bank information.

Make sure all these details match what your bank entered for you, particularly your name.

4. Complete verification via bank transfer.

Within 2 days, Alipay will wire a small amount of money (under 1RMB) to your bank account. Most major banks send SMS messages when a transfer is made - if yours doesn't, you can check at an ATM.

5. Verify transfer amount online.

After you receive the wire transfer, come back to the verification portal (same process as Step 1) and you'll be prompted to enter the transfer amount.

6. Success!

If the amounts match, you'll be brought to this screen. Nice work, you've (finally) verified your Alipay account!
