DuPay Card (archived) Has Shut Down: What to Switch To

Shutdown timeline

Newest event first. Each entry comes from this card’s change log or from verified official material; where several share a date, the one written as an event comes first.

1. 2026-10-14Brand Renaming

   Recording the name change: the Depay brand became Dupay, so Depay is kept in the body text as a search term

   This card was previously recorded only as DuPay, and the word Depay never appeared in the text — yet Depay is what people actually type, and Google's own autocomplete treats the two as one entity. The issuer's official Telegram channel still states in its description that the Depay brand became Dupay, so the name change is recorded here, and Depay now appears in both the body text and the search aliases. This adds a naming detail; it is not a status change. The card remains discontinued, and both the shutdown date and the guidance on old accounts are unchanged.

Comparable replacement cards

Replacement cards come from this site’s card directory, with closed and winding-down products excluded. This card has no other active product in its category, so the list is ordered by how far a mainland China reader can apply.

Replacements are listed in this site’s selection order; this is not a ranking or a recommendation. Each card’s fees, eligibility and rewards follow the official sources on its own profile. Confirm regional eligibility before comparing fees.

What to do next

Deadlines the issuer has given

The issuer has not published a deadline that is still in effect.

This site’s general checklist

The following is not an instruction from the issuer. It is this site’s general advice for any card being retired.

1. Stop topping up the card or its account, so the balance does not sit with a party that has stopped operating.
2. Move the balance back to a wallet or account you control before the service ends; the withdrawal route usually closes before the card itself does.
3. Go through every recurring charge tied to this card, especially AI and streaming subscriptions, and move them to the new card before cancelling the old one.
4. Keep the shutdown notice, withdrawal records and ticket numbers as evidence for any later claim or appeal.
5. Pick a backup card on a different network or from a different issuer, so a single channel failure does not take both down at once.
