The Atlanta processor said Wednesday that its Asian joint venture with HSBC Holdings PLC, Global Payments Asia-Pacific Ltd., has expanded China UnionPay acceptance into the Philippines, Brunei, the Maldives, Singapore and Sri Lanka.

"Our merchants in those markets can now welcome more mainland Chinese tourists," Ian Courtnage, the president of Global Payments Asia-Pacific, said in a press release.
