Everything you can't Google about China
China's a walled garden — different apps, different payments, a language barrier. We translate all of it into plain answers.
- 01
Pay without a bank account
Link a foreign Visa or Mastercard to Alipay or WeChat Pay and scan QR almost anywhere — no Chinese bank needed.
- 02
Get around like a local
DiDi in English, high-speed trains where your passport is the ticket, and metros you ride by QR.
- 03
Break the language barrier
Instant two-way translation — type it, get the Chinese characters to show a driver or waiter.
- 04
Get the rules right
Visa-free entry (30 days for the UK, EU, Canada & more in 2026), VPN & eSIM, police registration — answers that cite a source when it matters.

Questions travelers ask us
Does it work inside China?
Yes. It runs on Telegram, which stays reachable on a travel eSIM that routes around the Great Firewall — often when apps like ChatGPT or Google don't. The service itself is hosted outside mainland China, so you get answers in the moment, on the ground.
Is it really free?
Yes — you get free messages every day in the Telegram chat, no card required. If you want unlimited use for your trip there are one-time passes from $5, plus optional human-expert products; but the core travel Q&A is free to try.
Do I need to install an app or create an account?
No. It lives inside Telegram — tap Start and you're chatting. There's no separate app to download and no signup or password.
What can it actually help with?
Paying without a Chinese bank account (Alipay or WeChat Pay with a foreign card), getting around (DiDi, high-speed trains, metro QR codes), instant two-way translation, visa and entry rules, staying online (eSIM/VPN), and city-by-city tips.
Can I trust the answers?
Answers are grounded in a curated, dated knowledge base and cite a source on the rules that change fast — visa, payments, connectivity. When something is uncertain it tells you to confirm with an official source rather than guessing, and the paid tiers add a real human expert who checks the answers.
Is there a real person behind it, or just AI?
Both. The AI answers instantly, 24/7; the $19 expert itinerary review and the $49 on-trip companion add a real China-travel expert who reviews your plan and follows up personally when there's more you should know.
Advice from people who actually go
The knowledge behind the bot isn't scraped from the internet — it's built and checked by people who ride these trains, cross these bridges, and pay with these apps. A few frames from our own trips:
