How it works
Staying connected in China mainland
China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom run China’s networks, with fast 4G and 5G in cities.
- ✓Many China plans connect through Hong Kong, so Google, WhatsApp and Instagram work as they do at home. Check “Online you appear in” on the plan.
- ✓Local apps such as WeChat and Alipay need data and work on any plan.
- ✓Set up payment apps before you arrive, as some steps need a working connection.
