WeChat

WeChat is a multifunctional social and communication platform developed by Tencent, headquartered in Shenzhen, China, and operating worldwide with a dominant presence in China and Asia. Originally launched as a messaging app, WeChat has evolved into a powerful “super app” that combines social networking, voice and video calls, payments, mini-programs, e-commerce, and music and media sharing all in one ecosystem. Within the music industry, WeChat is a key distribution and promotion channel — enabling artists, labels, and brands to share tracks, run campaigns, connect with fans, and integrate streaming services directly into chats or official accounts. Its seamless integration across everyday digital life makes WeChat one of the most influential platforms for music discovery and engagement in China.
