help DiDi FAQ
Can I use Uber in China instead of DiDi?
No, Uber officially merged its Chinese operations with DiDi Chuxing in 2016 after a fierce price war. Since then, Uber's app does not operate within mainland China, making DiDi the dominant ride-sharing platform in the country.
How do I pay for a DiDi ride as a foreigner in China?
While DiDi has its own standalone English app, international users typically link an international credit card via Alipay or WeChat Pay to hail a ride. The standalone DiDi app allows for direct payment via international credit cards, though connectivity can sometimes be finicky.
Did DiDi get delisted from the New York Stock Exchange?
Yes, DiDi Global Inc. was delisted from the NYSE in June 2022, less than a year after its massive IPO in mid-2021. This decision came after the Cyberspace Administration of China launched a cybersecurity review into the company's data practices.
