EBAY Inc's PayPal unit aims to be the first foreign operator with a license to process electronic payments in China, allowing it to challenge local companies, including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd's Alipay affiliate.
"We are cautiously optimistic we'll be given a license," after PayPal filed an application to the People's Bank of China late last year, Senior Vice President for Asia Rupert Keeley said at a briefing in Hong Kong yesterday.
No overseas companies have so far been awarded a permit to process domestic payments in China, he said.
