Download China Apps for Business: Alipay, VPN, 1688 and More with an IFC China Number

IFC – Imports From China (20+ Years Import Experts, trusted since 2004) gives verified Indian business owners a China mobile number so they can download and use the China apps needed to talk to and trade with Chinese suppliers. The service is strictly for business use and for B2B importers only.

Why importers need China apps

Many Chinese suppliers and factories work through apps that are available or fully functional only in China. The Chinese version of 1688 often shows factory-level products and pricing that importers do not see elsewhere, and payments and communication with suppliers frequently run through China-only apps. Without a China number, an Indian importer often cannot register or verify these apps.
