Question

【題目】 Do you shop online with websites like Taobao? When you make an order on Taobao, the money you pay doesn’t go directly to the seller. Instead, it goes through Alipay, which keeps your money for a while. Then Alipay gives the money to the seller.

This is called “third party online payment (支付)”. There is a transfer station (中轉(zhuǎn)站) between sellers and buyers to make online shopping safe. Buyers don’t need to worry about paying for products and then receiving nothing. Sellers also don’t worry about receiving no money after sending out products. These transfer stations are usually set up by payment service companies (公司) such as Alipay, Tenpay and Yeepay. Among them, Alipay is the biggest in China. It has more than 270 million active users.

While most online sellers and shoppers like the third party online payment, banks don’t. That is because companies like Alipay are fighting over money with the banks. Users can make money through Alipay. So lots of people choose to put money in Alipay rather than in banks.

But WeChat payment is not the same. It doesn’t have a transfer station. When paying through WeChat, the buyers’ money goes directly to the sellers. That’s why so many people are excited about receiving and handing out hongbao.

In a word, the two forms of payment are trying to make online shopping easier. Which one do you prefer?
