Customer Receipts – April 2025
Overview of April 2025
During April 2025, our service processed multiple cross-border payments through four major channels: Alipay, Bank Deposits, Corporate Bank Transfers, and Personal Bank Transfers. With a total of 766 verified receipts, this month stands out as one of the most active periods of 2025. The sharp increase in corporate bank transfer receipts indicates a remarkable surge of demand from medium and large importing businesses, especially those purchasing in bulk from Chinese suppliers.
Transaction Summary
Alipay
Alipay continued to serve individual buyers and mid-sized online sellers. Activity remained stable, fueled mostly by micro-orders and frequent payments to Chinese suppliers. The numbers indicate that Alipay is still a preferred tool for smaller or instant transactions requiring quick confirmation and settlement.
Bank Deposited
There were no receipts recorded via bank deposit during April, similar to previous months. Customer preference continues to shift toward modern transfer methods rather than manual cash deposits, suggesting long-term decline for this channel.
Bank Transfer – Corporate
Corporate transfers surged dramatically to 516 receipts, making April a milestone month with one of the strongest corporate performances recorded to date. The sharp increase reflects wholesale buyers scaling up inventory, larger purchasing volumes, and stronger business-to-business relationships between customers and Chinese suppliers. This pattern also reinforces that corporate bank transfers remain the most trusted channel for high-value or bulk transactions.
Bank Transfer – Personal
Personal transfers reached 91 receipts, demonstrating stable demand from smaller importers, individual buyers, and independent online sellers. Even though the total volume is overshadowed by corporate transfers this month, the numbers confirm continued activity from retail customers maintaining regular trade cycles with China.
WeChat Pay
No transactions were processed through WeChat Pay during April. This absence highlights fluctuating seasonal usage for this channel and suggests that customers relied more heavily on other transfer methods during this period.

General Insights
April shows clear signs of scaling activity as companies entered new purchasing cycles, preparing stock for the mid-year period. This shift emphasizes the growing reliance on corporate transfer channels, while personal payments remain healthy but proportionally smaller. The contrast in volume across channels highlights different customer profiles and reinforces the importance of diversified payment methods in serving both corporate and individual clients.
Conclusion
April 2025 marked a powerful month for corporate activity, driven by large-volume procurement and continued economic engagement with Chinese suppliers. Every channel played a role, although corporate transfers dominated the landscape with record-level usage. Overall, April reinforces a strong upward momentum for Q2-2025 and continues the consistent transaction growth that has defined the year so far.
