    Hi,
    I am wondering if I can pay by other means except by using credit cards or paypal?

    If the domain belongs to a firm, it is quite wired to pay by cards or paypal.

    Thanks for answering in advance.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi chinglintw

    You can also check the local payment methods mentioned for specific countries in the support document below:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/payment/#additional-local-payment-methods

    I think you can use Alipay as the payment method as Alipay is local payment method for China.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Shubhamgmath

    Thanks for the comment!
    I have already checked out the link. Alipay is very similar to Paypal, and as a non-Chinese firm, we can’t not use it.

    I would love to know other “traditional ” the payment means like wire payment, check…etc. A payment method that our accounting staff can go to the bank and pay.

    Staff might help you out with additional payment methods other than this.
    So,I am tagging this post as ‘modlook’ for Staff assistance please wait for some time they will get back to you on this.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi there,

    We are not able to accept payments by bank transfer, check or cash deposit, no.

    Hello kokkieh,

    Thanks for your response, and sorry for replying late.

    I would like to suggest WordPress.com to consider other payment methods, since there are more and more companies using WordPress to set up their official websites.

    Current payment methods like paypal, Alipay, or credit cards, are more close to “individual payment method”. Not for companies.

    So what we (as a firm) have done now, is to use an employee’s credit card to pay for the annual website domain. — However, we don’t think it is a proper method to do so. Because it may effect the employee’s tax, and what if that employee is transferring to other position?

    Please kindly seriously consider our suggestion.
    We are a small company but thanks WordPress.com for spreading our voice and products to the world. :)

    Hi there,

    Thank you for your suggestions. We’re always trying to add new payment gateways.

    Have you considered getting a company credit card? I sure know a lot of business (small and large) are doing this.

    Hello fstat,

    Thanks for your reply and suggestion.

    I do understand it is quite common in the U.S.; but unfortunately, company credit card is very rare in my country… :(
