UnionPay has announced that its acceptance footprint has been extended to reach 174 countries and regions.

In order to meet the payment needs of Chinese outbound tourists, the company continues to extend its acceptance network outside mainland China.

Currently, the UnionPay acceptance footprint has extended to 174 countries and regions. In the second half of 2018, Serbia, Montenegro, and Jamaica started accepting UnionPay cards. On the eve of the Spring Festival, merchants in the UK, Poland and Georgia began accepting the UnionPay mobile payment services, offering more payment options to Chinese tourists.

Earlier in January 2019, Citcon partnered with UnionPay International to allow North American merchants to accept QR code payments.
