Can i use Apple Pay to transfer money overseas?

We have family living in JP and NZ and occasionally send cash for birthdays, Christmas, etc. Western Union’s app & website are unreliable and kiosks are expensive!

Apple Cash/Pay I am really confused about where Apple Cash (same as Apple Pay?) is available. I looked at some other discussion topics here and the replies said that Apple Pay is available ONLY in the US. But on the Apple Pay support page it says: "In China mainland, you can use Apple Pay on the web in Safari only on compatible iPhone and iPad models using iOS 11.2 or later." So it seems like it works in China??? I am mainly interested in Chinese people being able to send small amounts of money outside of China via Apple Pay. I am in Thailand and have Apple Pay set up on my iPhone. Could somebody in China send me money this way? The back-story, in case anyone's interested: My next door neighbor is an exchange student from China. Her parents send her a small allowance via PayPal every few months for her living expenses. There is some rumor here that PayPal personal accounts will be discontinued and only business accounts will be permitted, meaning she'll have no way to get her money. So I'm trying to come up with a work-around for her.

No, you can not. Apple Pay is not a money transfer service.
