In recent years, China has surprised the world in terms of technology, especially in terms of infrastructure and payment systems. Glimpses of China’s innovative technologies often go viral on social media. Pakistani content creator Rana Hamza Saif shared one such video on Instagram, which has created a stir on the internet. In this video, a payment technology is demonstrated, which proves that China lives in the future.
Payments are made via palm only
The video was shot at a local grocery store in Juzhou city, where Saif and his friends were shopping. In the video, a friend surprised everyone by paying through the “handheld payment system.” Saif explained that if someone’s palm is registered, he can make payments across China simply by waving his palm. After the transaction was successful, some friends couldn’t believe this new technology, while others applauded. The title of the post reads – China lives in 2050.
With 9 million views, the video went viral
The video quickly went viral on Instagram and has been viewed more than 9 million times. People gave furious reactions in the comments. One user wrote – This is the future, can’t believe we are seeing this today! At the same time, some people say that China is always one step ahead in technology. What a great system! Many netizens expressed joy about this and wrote: If this technology spreads to all parts of the world, life will become easier.

I have seen similar scenes before
Not only Saif’s video, Harsh Goenka, chairman of RPG Group, also shared a video of the same technique on X earlier. In the video, a woman talks about her experience paying with her palm on the Beijing subway. She said, Living in China, I have become accustomed to cashless payments such as QR codes and facial recognition technology. Now I can pay with just the palm of my hand without touching anything.
