In recent years, China has surprised the world in terms of technology, especially through its infrastructure and payments system. Flashes of China’s innovative technology often go viral on social media. One such video was shared by Pakistani content creator Rana Hamza Saif on Instagram, which has created quite a stir on the internet. This video shows a payment technology that shows that China lives in the future.
Payment is made only through the palm.
This video was filmed at a local grocery store in Juzhou City, where Saif and his friends went shopping. The video shows a friend making the payment through the ‘Palm Payment System’, which surprised everyone. Saif explained that if a person’s palm is registered, they can make payments throughout China by simply waving their palm. After the success of the transaction, some of the friends could not believe this new technology, while others applauded. The title of the post read: China will live in 2050.

A similar scene has also been seen before.
Not just Saif’s video, but RPG Group’s previous chairman Harsh Goenka had also shared a video of the same technique on X. In that video, a woman had narrated her experience of paying with her palm on the Beijing Subway. She said: Living in China, I am already used to cashless payments such as QR code and facial recognition technology, and now I can make payments with just my palm without touching anything.
