Thanks to all involved!

That’s a wrap on ChinaJoy 2026.

Three days of meeting partners, speaking with new leads and sharing how @WooshPay helps businesses manage payments as they expand overseas.

We also made new friends and came away with plenty of ideas to explore.

Eleven years in Chinese payments taught me what happens when infrastructure outgrows the compliance beneath it.

We built @WooshPay the other way round. US FinCEN MSB registration is now in place.

To the team behind the paperwork nobody reads: thank you.

[WooshPay @WooshPay]

We've expanded our US regulatory footprint with the successful registration of our US entity as a Money Services Business (MSB) with FinCEN.

Compliance is part of the infrastructure behind global payments.

170+ countries & territories. 155+ currencies. One platform.

Intl. growth isn't just about acquiring users. It's about turning them into customers through the right local experience. Thanks to Apple for the invitation, & everyone who joined the discussion. Great conversations on App Store growth, AI and global products. 3/3

Spent Saturday speaking at Apple's Shanghai Developer Centre for the Apple App Incubator programme on a topic I think deserves more attention: how apps actually monetise once they go global.

Most growth conversations focus on acquisition.
The real test comes at payment. 🧵1/3

[Ma Zhiguo (Max) @mazhiguo]

A few takeaways from the discussion:

• Every extra step at checkout creates friction.
• Local payment methods matter as much as acquiring users.
• The hardest challenges often come after launch: refunds, compliance, frozen funds and operations. 🧵2/3
