    Hey, I'm an expat living in China and I was wondering if there is any way that I can purchase games using either Alipay and a union pay debit card? These are the two methods that I can pay for things in Yuan as that is the currency I am paid in.

    Thanks for the info

    I have ordered a European version X1, it should arrive in a few day, now another problem my xbox account is in the UK and I have tried to add my UK credit card via the internet as a payment option from CHINA, and it has been refused, I contacted my bank,
    no issues there, so now I don't know how I will be able to purchase a gold live account or digital games, if I change my account region to China, will I only be able to use China Xbox store ????? confused !!!!

    The debit card may work. China is a supported Xbox Live country so give it a shot if it’s all you have to try.

    Let us know if it works

    Hong Kong Version is good for you.

    And there is no region lock on xbox one.

    Language and store goes with xbox location setting, if you like you can set to US /UK region on your xbox one console.

    You can purchase games via console / xbox website / smartglass apps. If your console's power setting is instant on, after didital purchase, xbox console will download new purchase items and updates automatic.
