Recently, the People's Bank of China issued huge fines to Alipay and Tenpay, two Internet payment giants. This news shocked society and sparked widespread discussion and controversy. These two companies, as representatives of China's internet payment industry, enjoy a monopoly position, but have been severely punished for their illegal and irregular behavior. The announcement of this ticket is undoubtedly a blow and an important attempt to regulate the power of internet giants.

First, let's take a look at the tickets Alipay faces. The total amount of confiscated illegal gains, high fines, and penalties imposed by Ant Technology Group and related personnel reached 3.285 billion yuan. And Tenpay is no exception, fined 3 billion yuan, including confiscation of illegal gains of 560 million yuan. The huge amount of such fines is astonishing, and it also indicates that regulatory authorities will never tolerate the attitude of the internet payment industry.


Through the analysis of the details of the ticket, we found that two of the violations were particularly noteworthy: failure to fulfill customer identification obligations as required, and engaging in transactions with unidentified customers or opening anonymous or pseudonymous accounts for customers. These violations are closely related to the recent frequent incidents of Phone fraud. Phone fraud often involves the opening of false accounts, illegal transfers and other acts, which has brought huge economic losses and security risks to society. Therefore, for Internet payment platforms such as Alipay and Tenpay, it is particularly important to perform the obligation of identity recognition and strengthen the review and monitoring of transaction subjects.

However, we also have to admit that Alipay and WeChat Pay (Tenpay) have become indispensable payment methods in our lives. Whether it's online shopping or offline consumption, they are almost ubiquitous. This monopolistic phenomenon is causing concern for many people. In this monopolistic situation, consumers often face high transaction fees and unsatisfactory services. The WeChat withdrawal fee of 1% has sparked widespread controversy, and universities have faced strong opposition to the WeChat fee plan for tuition fees. Although WeChat ultimately abandoned this charging plan, this incident has raised concerns about the power and fees of internet payment platforms.

As consumers, we may not be able to make too many changes to the 1% service charge of WeChat Pay, and we can only passively accept it. We feel helpless about this, but we also know that we cannot leave the reality of WeChat Pay. This helpless and passive situation leads to reflection. Should we impose stricter regulations on the monopoly phenomenon in the internet payment industry? Should more choices and competition be provided to ensure that consumers' rights and interests are fully protected?

The ticket of Alipay and Tenpay is undoubtedly an important measure for the supervision of the Internet payment industry. It issued a warning to all enterprises, reminding them to comply with laws and regulations, ensure fair competition, and protect consumer rights. At the same time, it also prompts us to reflect on the monopoly issue in the internet payment industry and calls on relevant regulatory authorities to further strengthen their regulatory efforts to promote fairness and transparency in market competition.
To sum up, the huge fines suffered by Alipay and Tenpay have caused extensive controversy and reflection. From monopoly issues to power regulation, from consumer interests to industry norms, these are important issues that require our in-depth consideration and exploration. Only on the basis of fair competition and standardized operation can the internet payment industry develop healthily and bring better services and experiences to consumers.
