China UnionPay card RMB payments now accepted at Macau.com

China UnionPay (CUP) cards are now accepted for online payments in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (RMB) by Macau.com, the leading online destination marketing and travel company in Macau. In order to enable accepting CUP Renminbi (RMB) bankcards issued in Mainland China Macau.com has recently partnered with BilltoBill, China's leading online payment solution provider.

"This is an important development for Macau.com as it allows us to serve the growing number of Mainland Chinese customers using our Macau and Hong Kong hotels booking services," says Christina Siaw, Macau.com's CEO. She added: "The addition of CUP RMB payment method largely complements other international card and currency selections that we offer, greatly facilitating the bookings of hotels in Hong Kong and Macau for the mainland customers." 

Founded in 2002, CUP is the official and only domestic inter-bank network in the People's Republic of China. Around 200 CUP member banks in China have issued nearly 2 billion CUP debit and credit cards, which cover over 95% of China's consumer market. CUP bankcards are well accepted all over China, along with an increasing popularity in countries and regions outside the Mainland.
