This shop might not accept credit cards; you'll need a debit card or a WeChat Pay balance.

i am using debit card, and wechat pay balance i cannot top up because i am not using a card from mainland china

If you only need 1.03 yuan, add me as a friend; I'll transfer two yuan to you, and then you can try again.

It's up to the store (or the store's payment processor if they are using one) to decide whether they want to accept credit cards and international cards depending on the type of contract they have with wechat. Since the processing fees are a lot higher than for ordinary domestic payments some just don't want to deal with credit cards and international cards.

okay, i do not have any friends in china, do you know hoa@xxderek #7

i have made over 50 purchases and its on every store, not just one, it is very weird

okay i will try make friends, thanks for the advice friend
