Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer, leader in luxury tourism in Europe and key partner for major events in the Principality of Monaco, wanted to add Alipay to its payment-application portfolio; Alipay is a very popular payment method among Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer's Chinese clients. With the support of Ingenico Group and BNP Paribas, the acquiring bank of Alipay (the largest Chinese mobile payment and services platform operated by Ant Financial Services Group) in France and Monaco, Monte-Carlo Société des Bains de Mer began offering this payment method at the most recent Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix.

The product of collaboration between Ingenico, Monte-Carlo Société de Bains de Mer and Alipay, this pilot deployment enabled Monte-Carlo Société de Bains de Mer to offer Chinese tourists a better purchasing experience and to grow its revenue. The launch was also the prelude to a broader roll-out of Alipay within Ingenico's client portfolio.
