Do you pay with paper money, credit card, or your phone when you go shopping? People in China may pay with WeChat on the phones. We seldom use paper money.

While WeChat Pay is now a part of life in our country, this way of paying also appears in other countries. A lot of foreign companies (公司) and traders have to accept it. According to Xinhua News, about 13 foreign countries have WeChat Pay services for Chinese travelers.

Is it good or bad to use WeChat Pay? Will people no longer use paper money in the future? Some discussions appear on the Internet.

“I don’t think so. Nearly half of Chinese people live in the countryside. People there can’t enjoy it without good Internet service. And most old people like to use paper money,” says Winnie.

“WeChat Pay is convenient and safe. We needn’t tell if the money is real or fake (假的). But paper money is just the opposite. We should encourage people to use WeChat Pay more”, says Paula.

“For a long time, people will use different ways to pay,” says Sunshine, “Traders should allow people to choose the ways they like to pay.”

Will paper money disappear in the future? What’s your idea about it?
