Recent data released by the General Administration of Customs shows that in the first four months of 2026, the total value of my country’s import and export of goods trade was 16.23 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.9%, and the cumulative growth rate was basically the same as in the first quarter.
Among them, exports were 9.33 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.3%; imports were 6.9 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 20%.
In April, my country’s total import and export value of goods trade was 4.38 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.2%.
The rising foreign trade boom will be accelerated to the cross-border payment industry.
Payment is the “financial channel” for global business transactions. When the frequency of bilateral or multilateral trade exchanges increases and the scale of transactions expands, more rigid needs such as currency exchange, cross-border collection and payment, and fund settlement will be generated, which will benefit the revenue and profits of the cross-border payment industry.
In the field of cross-border payments, Lianlian Digital, as the leader in cross-border payments listed on Hong Kong stocks, is expected to benefit significantly.
The company officially obtained the Canadian MBS license in April, and its global payment licenses and compliance qualifications have been expanded to 67. It is the only domestic digital payment service provider with a U.S.-wide money transfer license.
This series of licenses and qualifications has built solid compliance barriers for Lianlian Digital in the cross-border payment market, allowing it to conduct business more smoothly around the world.
Facing the AI native era, Lianlian Digital is actively promoting strategic transition and allowing AI to penetrate into every aspect of products, risk control, operations and services.
In terms of products, AI technology can achieve more accurate user portraits and provide personalized payment solutions for different customers; in the field of risk control, AI can monitor transaction risks in real time, detect and prevent potential fraud in a timely manner, and ensure the safety of user funds; in terms of operations and services, AI can improve efficiency, realize automated customer service, and enhance user experience.
In the context of the continued recovery of foreign trade, Lianlian Digital will continue to demonstrate its leading value in the industry by relying on compliance barriers, service systems and technical capabilities.
With the further development of my country’s foreign trade, the demand for cross-border payments will continue to increase. Lianlian Digital is expected to seize this opportunity to further expand its market share and enhance its profitability and industry influence.
At the same time, its exploration and application in the field of AI will also bring new development ideas and models to the cross-border payment industry and promote innovation and progress in the entire industry.
For foreign trade companies, the existence of Lianlian Digital provides them with more convenient, safe and efficient cross-border payment services, helping to reduce transaction costs and improve capital turnover efficiency.
For consumers, they can also enjoy a smoother cross-border shopping experience.
In short, Lianlian Digital’s advantages and development potential in the field of cross-border payments will be fully demonstrated in the context of the recovery of my country’s foreign trade, making positive contributions to the development of global trade.
