Now, Chinese users can simply scan a QR code to pay Elon Musk. Grok is a chatbot developed by xAI, Musk's AI company. Some users have noticed that setting their account region to mainland China adds an Alipay option to the payment page, alongside bank cards and Apple Pay. After filling in a mainland China address and clicking pay, the page redirects directly to Alipay. After scanning the QR code for verification, a payment authorization page pops up. The payee is listed as xAI, LLC, the US company itself, eliminating intermediaries and middlemen. The payment is deducted in RMB at the USD exchange rate. Previously, paying overseas AI users required a foreign currency card or virtual card, causing many users to get stuck at the payment step. Now, it's similar to buying a membership. The authorization page clearly states that after activation, every xAI transaction will be automatically deducted from your Alipay account, similar to the continuous monthly subscription model used by domestic apps.
