Recently, some users have found that Alipay's payment code has added "payment code privacy protection function". Open the "payment code privacy protection function", the payment code is hidden, click "Show payment code" to display normally. The editor's test found that this should be to guard against the risk of users unknowingly disclosing payment code information.

The Alipay Security Center has also had many security reminders, and the editor also nagged that account number, password and payment code information are all personal sensitive information. When entering a password or displaying a payment code, you must pay attention to the security of the surrounding environment. The payment code is displayed by paying people. Be sure to show it to the right people, but not to those who shouldn't.

Recently, some merchants were tricked into showing their payment code when they were connected to a remote video, so they were swept away by the video party. The new function of Alipay solves the risk of such users who have to connect with remote video in their daily life. Of course, if the user does not have this problem, there is no need to turn on this feature.

Payment code is a method of payment that users use frequently every day. You can pay by showing it to the cashier and scanning it. At present, the payment code pages of major payment platforms have a number of security settings. Take Alipay as an example:

1. Prohibit screenshots of mobile phones, or display security warning messages when screenshots of mobile phones are taken.

2. The payment code is automatically updated every minute and is valid once.

3, payment code security lock function, after opening, you need fingerprint or gesture verification to enter the payment code page.

4. The new "payment code privacy protection function": "receive payment"-"…" -"payment Code Privacy Protection"-"Open"

As a reminder, Internet features are usually released in grayscale batches, and the old rule: keep App updated to the latest version, which can be used one after another these days.
